'object' class documentation in python

Question

I can't find the documentation of the 'object' class in python, which is the root of the inheritance tree of all classes in python. what I have tried: googling the terms shows pages and pages of results regarding object oriented programming in python. where can I get the documentation?

@Jesper Did you read it? It doesn't say much about the class, like the methods it implements. — Barmar

Remember that object is a class, and like all other classes you can get two useful things.

help
dir

Try this:

>>> help(object) # Will give you some information about the methods implemented
>>> dir(object) # Will give you the attributes list

Do you want the exact source code?

I think object was implemented at interpreter-level, but in the file builtins.pyi you can find something useful too.
