I was trying to call the builtin function min by using
getattr(__builtins__,'min')

This works at the interpretter prompt

However when I called it inside a module that was imported by another module
it fails and gives an attribute error

__builtins__ (note the final 's') is an implementation detail. You want the __builtin__ (no 's') module, renamed 'builtin' in Python 3.x

Should read "...renamed 'builtins' in Python 3.x, just to add to the confusion." :)
