| \noindent |
| Python is an extensible, interpreted, object-oriented programming |
| language. It supports a wide range of applications, from simple text |
| processing scripts to interactive WWW browsers. |
| |
| While the \emph{Python Reference Manual} describes the exact syntax and |
| semantics of the language, it does not describe the standard library |
| that is distributed with the language, and which greatly enhances its |
| immediate usability. This library contains built-in modules (written |
| in C) that provide access to system functionality such as file I/O |
| that would otherwise be inaccessible to Python programmers, as well as |
| modules written in Python that provide standardized solutions for many |
| problems that occur in everyday programming. Some of these modules |
| are explicitly designed to encourage and enhance the portability of |
| Python programs. |
| |
| This library reference manual documents Python's standard library, as |
| well as many optional library modules (which may or may not be |
| available, depending on whether the underlying platform supports them |
| and on the configuration choices made at compile time). It also |
| documents the standard types of the language and its built-in |
| functions and exceptions, many of which are not or incompletely |
| documented in the Reference Manual. |
| |
| This manual assumes basic knowledge about the Python language. For an |
| informal introduction to Python, see the \emph{Python Tutorial}; the |
| \emph{Python Reference Manual} remains the highest authority on |
| syntactic and semantic questions. Finally, the manual entitled |
| \emph{Extending and Embedding the Python Interpreter} describes how to |
| add new extensions to Python and how to embed it in other applications. |
