Grant> where are the methods of basic types documented? The other day I suggested the most valuable doc page to bookmark is the global module index. Here's a demonstration. Start at:
http://www.python.org/dev/doc/devel/modindex.html Click "__builtin__", which takes you to http://www.python.org/dev/doc/devel/lib/module-builtin.html Click the "2" in "See Chapter 2", which takes you to http://www.python.org/dev/doc/devel/lib/builtin.html#builtin Scroll down to section 2.3.6 and choose your sequence poison. I use the dev docs instead of the latest release docs because I generally run from CVS on my system, however in this case it has the added advantage that the link on the __builtin__ page is more useful.
