Thank you, Eric. My comment was not intended either as a bug (I thought
it was the wrong place to post it, but coud not find any better) or a
help request. It is just a suggestion.
We non professional progammers happen to be writing code for some time,
then stopping, then coming back. Therefore we often vaguely know how to
do, but do not remember the syntax well. The best solution is a great
reference manual. The reference structure makes the info easy to find,
then you want a definition, and an example as well, to clarify the
usage. I noticed that the present stage of documentation is not ideal,
and , to my understanding, what is lacking most is the simple example part.
I will post this on the the python-dev list, as you suggest. Thanks
again Roberto

> The language reference is useful to understand subtleties or implement a Python interpreter, not for common use. The library reference is, well, a reference manual to use when you already know the modules. Another resource with more examples is http://www.doughellmann.com/PyMOTW/articles/. SilentGhost gave you the link to the official tutorial; more links are given on http://wiki.python.org/moin/FrontPage. If you still have questions, the python-list mailing list or #python IRC channel are full of nice people with answers.

> I hope those links get you started in the right direction. Since this report does not contain a specific error in the Python doc, I am closing it.

> If you want to suggest the policy of adding short examples to all our docs, please bring it up to the python-dev mailing list.
