unnecessary-builtin-import (UP029)

Derived from the pyupgrade linter.

Fix is always available.

What it does

Checks for unnecessary imports of builtins.

Why is this bad?

Builtins are always available. Importing them is unnecessary and should be removed to avoid confusion.

Example

from builtins import str

str(1)

Use instead:

str(1)
