Nice! I had looked for this type of function, but could not find it.

Is there a list of functions, organized by categories, for Python?
Take for example these pages from te php documentation:
http://il.php.net/manual/en/book.strings.php
http://il.php.net/manual/en/book.array.php
http://il.php.net/manual/en/book.math.php

which are all linked from:
http://il.php.net/manual/en/funcref.php

Is there anything like this for Python? If not, I am willing to code
the site if some Python gurus will help contribute their knowledge.

This I have read, while googling this thread.

This I will read, to keep up to speed.

Thanks!
