It is explained in The Python Language Reference, chapter Expressions,
section Comparisons. At least that's were it is in the 2.6 doc.
Lots of people have been very helpful but isn't the OP's real problem
that "in" is not included in the 2.6.1 Help index?
Well, this may not solve the OP's problem, but the current
(2.7a0) .chm file has a much better index for operators and
keywords. And "in" is in there. If you're interested in
comparing, there's a copy here:

Thanks. "in" is now in the index twice,
but I wasn't able to follow the links.
I trust that the improved docs will go
back to 2.6, unless 2.7 is almost ready.
