Please don’t learn from this link. It’s from 2001. You should learn from modern documentation: https://docs.python.org/ (if not running 3.4.x, change the version in the top) You also should not read the language reference, it’s meant for people who really care about what’s under the hood. The official tutorial is better for learning: https://docs.python.org/3/tutorial/index.html -- Chris “Kwpolska” Warrick <http://chriswarrick.com/> PGP: 5EAAEA16 stop html mail | always bottom-post | only UTF-8 makes sense -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
