The Python Language Reference Manual
This is a printed edition of the official Python language reference manual from the Python 3.2 distribution. It describes the syntax of Python 3 and its built-in datatypes and operators. Python is an interpreted object-oriented programming language, suitable for rapid application development and scripting. This manual is intended for advanced users who need a complete description of the Python 3 language syntax and object system. A simpler tutorial suitable for new users of Python is available in the companion volume "An Introduction to Python (for Python version 3.2)" (ISBN 978-1-906966-13-3). For each copy of this manual sold USD 1 is donated to the Python Software Foundation by the publisher, Network Theory Ltd.
The Python Language Reference
The Python Language Reference Release 3.6.4 describes the syntax and "core semantics" of the language. It is terse, but attempts to be exact and complete. The semantics of non-essential built-in object types and of the built-in functions and modules are described in library-index. For an informal introduction to the language, see tutorial-index. For C or C++ programmers, two additional manuals exist: extending-index describes the high-level picture of how to write a Python extension module, and the c-api-index describes the interfaces available to C/C++ programmers in detail. This book is available for free as a PDF at python.org.
