Book Scope

This book is a reference-only but content-rich resource for both Python 3.X and 2.X. It covers the Python language as well as its commonly used libraries and tools and provides quick reference to formal and complete details not given elsewhere. As such, this book is designed to work as a supplement, companion, and extension to other books—including the language-foundations tutorial Learning Python, as well as the follow-up applications tutorial Programming Python. Together, these 3 books provide a 3,200-page set of related Python documentation. For more on this book's scope, see also the 2024 update for this book's latest edition.
