Some built in functions are given below with examples. Refer python documentation for more details. https://docs.python.org/3.8/library/functions.html abs(x) returns the absolute value of x . abs(-45) will return 45 max(x,y,z) returns the maximum of x,y,z . max(10,20,30) will return 30 min(x,y,z) returns the minimum of x,y,z . min(10,20,30) will return 10 divmod(x,y) returns both the quotient and remainder . divmod(14,5) will return (2,4) cmp(x,y) returns 0 if x==y , 1 if x>y and -1 if x<y round(x,n) round x to n digits. round(3.145...
