Consult the documentation:
https://docs.python.org/3/library/index.html
It's probably the only place that has everything documented.
Instead of reading everything from A-Z though, the more typical approach
is to skim through it to know what is available, then read in-depth the
parts that seem useful for a concrete problem you're trying to solve
currently. In my experience, a thorough understanding of most chapters
doesn't come with reading alone, but with practice.
Best,
Wolfgang
