the words "built-in function" means that the function is im-
plemented in C, and is therefore outside the reach of Python's
introspection mechanisms. In this case, there don't seem to
be any custom docstring associated with this method, so the
above is all help() can tell you at the moment. This may of
course change in future releases.
