The question is whether you're new to Emacs.
If so, start with the Emacs tutorial. When you first start Emacs, type
C-h C-t (that's hold control and press h, then hold control and press t)
If not, then open a Python file. Make sure the status bar says (Python).
That is, make sure that you are in Python mode. Then type
C-h m
That's the standard for getting help on the current editing mode in Emacs.
