Module core

Pseudo root of all pre-registered modules.

This is a fake module created to link together all of the modules that are automatically loaded in the interpreter.

Except for the prelude module, all modules listed here can be imported from any file inside of the interpreter. This is unlike other modules, which are loaded using relative paths.

The prelude module is unique because the classes, enums, and functions are the foundation of the interpreter. Instead of requiring it to be imported, the contents of prelude are instead available without a namespace.

Modules

coroutine The coroutine package provides a suspendable Function.
fs Functions for interacting with the underlying filesystem.
introspect This package provides introspection into the interpreter. Introspection allows finding out what modules have been imported and what symbols that those modules hold. Note that the api that this package exports is currently limited.
math The math package provides access to some useful math functions and constants.
prelude The prelude module provides the classes, vars, and functions that form the foundation of Lily.
random The random package provides access to a Mersenne Twister for pseudo-random number generation.
subprocess This package provides subprocess creation.
sys Interpreter and system environment access.
time The time package provides access to basic time information on the system.
