This document describes the built-in types, exceptions and functions
|
|
|
|
and the standard modules that come with the Python system. It assumes
|
|
|
|
basic knowledge about the Python language. For an informal
|
|
|
|
introduction to the language, see the {\em Python Tutorial}. The {\em
|
|
|
|
Python Reference Manual} gives a more formal definition of the
|
|
|
|
language.
