A lookup path is an identifier with an optional path suffix that resolves to a [path value](@docroot@/language/types.md#type-path) if the identifier matches a search path entry.
The value of a lookup path is determined by [`builtins.nixPath`](@docroot@/language/builtin-constants.md#builtins-nixPath).
The value of a lookup path is determined by [`builtins.nixPath`](@docroot@/language/builtins.md#builtins-nixPath).
See [`builtins.findFile`](@docroot@/language/builtins.md#builtins-findFile) for details on lookup path resolution.
