*Most* of the builtins are available as methods of '_', so that you can use
'_.int()' for example.  Some are omitted, and I'm not sure why.  'type' is
certainly harmless, for instance.  I *think* that 'tuple', 'list', 'map', and
'filter' were left out for the same reason 'range' was restricted -- to
prevent excessive looping.
