Internal function (Definition)

Internal functions are built into the language interpreter but are private.

Availability:

ECMAScript edition - 2

Internal functions are built into the language interpreter.

These may also sometimes be referred to as internal methods.

A host implementation may provide additional non-ECMA compliant built-in functions by extending the Global object and other core objects that the ECMA standard defines.
