``new`` --- Creation of runtime internal objects
************************************************

Deprecated since version 2.6: The ``new`` module has been removed in
Python 3.0.  Use the ``types`` module's classes instead.

The ``new`` module allows an interface to the interpreter object
creation functions. This is for use primarily in marshal-type
functions, when a new object needs to be created "magically" and not
by using the regular creation functions. This module provides a low-
level interface to the interpreter, so care must be exercised when
using this module. It is possible to supply non-sensical arguments
which crash the interpreter when the object is used.

The ``new`` module defines the following functions:

new.instance(class[, dict])

   This function creates an instance of *class* with dictionary *dict*
   without calling the ``__init__()`` constructor.  If *dict* is
   omitted or ``None``, a new, empty dictionary is created for the new
   instance.  Note that there are no guarantees that the object will
   be in a consistent state.

new.instancemethod(function, instance, class)

   This function will return a method object, bound to *instance*, or
   unbound if *instance* is ``None``.  *function* must be callable.

new.function(code, globals[, name[, argdefs[, closure]]])

   Returns a (Python) function with the given code and globals. If
   *name* is given, it must be a string or ``None``.  If it is a
   string, the function will have the given name, otherwise the
   function name will be taken from ``code.co_name``.  If *argdefs* is
   given, it must be a tuple and will be used to determine the default
   values of parameters.  If *closure* is given, it must be ``None``
   or a tuple of cell objects containing objects to bind to the names
   in ``code.co_freevars``.

new.code(argcount, nlocals, stacksize, flags, codestring, constants, names, varnames, filename, name, firstlineno, lnotab)

   This function is an interface to the ``PyCode_New`` C function.

new.module(name[, doc])

   This function returns a new module object with name *name*. *name*
   must be a string. The optional *doc* argument can have any type.

new.classobj(name, baseclasses, dict)

   This function returns a new class object, with name *name*, derived
   from *baseclasses* (which should be a tuple of classes) and with
   namespace *dict*.
