Reading this tutorial has probably reinforced your interest in using Python ---
|
|
you should be eager to apply Python to solving your real-world problems. Where
|
|
should you go to learn more?
|
|
|
|
This tutorial is part of Python's documentation set. Some other documents in
|
|
the set are:
|
|
|
|
* :ref:`library-index`:
|
|
|
|
You should browse through this manual, which gives complete (though terse)
|
|
reference material about types, functions, and the modules in the standard
|
|
library. The standard Python distribution includes a *lot* of additional code.
|
|
There are modules to read Unix mailboxes, retrieve documents via HTTP, generate
|
|
random numbers, parse command-line options, write CGI programs, compress data,
|
|
and many other tasks. Skimming through the Library Reference will give you an
|
|
idea of what's available.
|
|
|
|
* :ref:`install-index` explains how to install external modules written by other
|
|
Python users.
|
|
|
|
* :ref:`reference-index`: A detailed explanation of Python's syntax and
|
|
semantics. It's heavy reading, but is useful as a complete guide to the
|
|
language itself.
|
|
|
|
More Python resources:
|
|
|
|
* http://www.python.org: The major Python Web site. It contains code,
|
|
documentation, and pointers to Python-related pages around the Web. This Web
|
|
site is mirrored in various places around the world, such as Europe, Japan, and
|
|
Australia; a mirror may be faster than the main site, depending on your
|
|
geographical location.
|
|
|
|
* http://docs.python.org: Fast access to Python's documentation.
|
|
|
|
* http://pypi.python.org: The Python Package Index, previously also nicknamed
|
|
the Cheese Shop, is an index of user-created Python modules that are available
|
|
for download. Once you begin releasing code, you can register it here so that
|
|
others can find it.
|
|
|
|
* http://aspn.activestate.com/ASPN/Python/Cookbook/: The Python Cookbook is a
|
|
sizable collection of code examples, larger modules, and useful scripts.
|
|
Particularly notable contributions are collected in a book also titled Python
|
|
Cookbook (O'Reilly & Associates, ISBN 0-596-00797-3.)
|
|
|
|
For Python-related questions and problem reports, you can post to the newsgroup
|
|
:newsgroup:`comp.lang.python`, or send them to the mailing list at
|
|
python-list@python.org. The newsgroup and mailing list are gatewayed, so
|
|
messages posted to one will automatically be forwarded to the other. There are
|
|
around 120 postings a day (with peaks up to several hundred), asking (and
|
|
answering) questions, suggesting new features, and announcing new modules.
|
|
Before posting, be sure to check the list of `Frequently Asked Questions
|
|
<http://www.python.org/doc/faq/>`_ (also called the FAQ), or look for it in the
|
|
:file:`Misc/` directory of the Python source distribution. Mailing list
|
|
archives are available at http://mail.python.org/pipermail/. The FAQ answers
|
|
many of the questions that come up again and again, and may already contain the
|
|
solution for your problem.
