Python-by-example - new online guide to Python Standard Library

[sjf]

Indeed, the first thing I saw on the front page was "math.sqrt(9) -
3.0". Ok, I thought, random arithmetic expression, so what?
There is already a standard way of showing a piece of code and its
results. It's the interactive prompt:

>>> import math
>>> math.sqrt(9)
3.0
>>>

Tada!
