The Python Docs - possibly you missed this because of the plethora of
links.  The Library Reference used to have the tag line:
	(keep this under your pillow)

The Module Index is the other key starting point.

A very handy quick reference.


I think Python has incredibly good documentation.  Fred Drake and the
other folks who write, edit and maintain the documentation do a
wonderful job of keeping it fresh and current as the language changes.
There are very few rough spots within the thousands of pages of text.

It's been a while since I looked at the Tutorial.  Is that where you
felt let down?

I felt compelled to respond to your post.  I think the quality and
quantity of Python documentation is hard to beat.
