Correct. There's a module pprint which provides a function pprint.pprint. It's like you can do this: >>> import math >>> math.sin(3.14/2) 0.9999996829318346 Or this: >>> from math import sin >>> sin(3.14/2) 0.9999996829318346 It's just that in this case, "math" and "sin" are both "pprint". > Then, how can I list all the function of pprint? >>> import pprint >>> help(pprint) > And, is there a way to list the variables I create in Python? Kinda. Try this: >>> dir() There'll be some in there that you didn't make, but that's a start. You could also try vars() or globals(), which will give you their values as well.
