Synopsis
In the tradition of O'Reilly's "In a Nutshell" series, this book offers Python programmers help remembering or deciphering the syntax of this open source language and its many modules. This comprehensive reference guide should make it easy to look up all the most frequently needed information - not just about the Python language itself, but also the most frequently used parts of the standard library and the most important third-party extensions. The book includes: a fast-paced tutorial on the syntax of the Python language itself; an explanation of object-oriented programming in Python, covering both the classic and new-style object models; coverage of other core topics, including exceptions, modules, strings, and regular expressions; a quick reference for Python's built-in types and functions, as well as the key modules in the Python standard library, including sys, os, time, thread, math, and socket, among many others; reference material on important third-party extensions, such as Numeric and Tkinter; and information about extending Python and embedding it into other applications.
