Ebook: Python in a Nutshell

In the tradition of our popular "In a Nutshell" series, this book offers you one place to look when you need help remembering or deciphering the most important tools and modules of this open source language.Python in a Nutshell covers more than the language itself; it also deals with the most frequently used parts of the standard library, and the most popular and important third party extensions. Revised and expanded for Python 2.5, this book now contains the gory details of Python's new subprocess module and the latest from Microsofts' IronPython project. This easy scripting language comes with a huge library that is enormously rich. Our "Nutshell" format fits Python perfectly by presenting the highlights of all modules and functions, which cover well over 90% of your practical programming needs.
