    And don't forget about the help() function:

    Help on class int in module builtins:
    
    class int(object)
     |  int([x]) -> integer
     |  int(x, base=10) -> integer
     |  
     |  Convert a number or string to an integer, or return 0 if no arguments
     |  are given.  If x is a number, return x.__int__().  For floating point
     |  numbers, this truncates towards zero.
     |  
     |  If x is not a number or if base is given, then x must be a string,
     |  bytes, or bytearray instance representing an integer literal in the
     |  given base.  The literal can be preceded by '+' or '-' and be surrounded
     |  by whitespace.  The base defaults to 10.  Valid bases are 0 and 2-36.
     |  Base 0 means to interpret the base from the string as an integer literal.
     |  >>> int('0b100', base=0)
     |  4
