Hello. I'm starting with Python coming from java.
I was wondering if there exists something similar to JavaDoc API where I can find the class, its methods and and example of how to use it.
I've found very helpul to use help( thing ) from the Python ( command line )
I have found this also:
http://docs.python.org/modindex.html
But it seems to help when you already the class name you are looking for. In JavaDoc API I have all the classes so if I need something I scroll down to a class that "sounds like" what I need. Or some times I just browse all the classes to see what they do, and when I need a feature my brain recalls me We saw something similar in the javadoc remember!?
But I don't seem to find the similar in Python ( yet ) and that why I'm posting this questin.
BTW I know that I would eventually will read this:
http://docs.python.org/lib/lib.html
But, well, I think it is not today.
