Module builtins 

The built-in library and the root scope.

root_scope creates the scope in which Swan code normally runs. It contains these bindings:

Name	Kind	Description
TRUE, FALSE	constant	The boolean values
type	function	The type name of a value
parse	function	Compiles Swan source text into a function
bind, label	function	Bind names in the global scope
bool	namespace	Boolean conversion and reduction
numb	namespace	Number conversion
text	namespace	Text inspection and manipulation
list	namespace	List inspection and manipulation
nspace	namespace	Namespace inspection
math	namespace	Mathematical constants and functions
time	namespace	Timestamps and calendar dates
promise	namespace	Creating and resolving promises
undef	namespace	Creating and inspecting undefined values

Every function is documented, with examples, in the built-in library reference of the Swan language manual.
