It should be used in conjunction with the <em class="citetitle"><a href="../lib/lib.html" title="Python Library Reference" >Python Library Reference</a></em>, which documents the standard library and built-in types. <P> This manual assumes basic knowledge about the Python language. For an informal introduction to Python, see the <em class="citetitle"><a href="../tut/tut.html" title="Python Tutorial" >Python Tutorial</a></em>; the <em class="citetitle"><a href="../ref/ref.html" title="Python Reference Manual" >Python Reference Manual</a></em> remains the highest authority on syntactic and semantic questions. Finally, the manual entitled <em class="citetitle"><a href="../ext/ext.html" title="Extending and Embedding the Python Interpreter" >Extending and Embedding the Python Interpreter</a></em> describes how to add new extensions to Python and how to embed it in other applications. <P> </DIV> <P> <P> <DIV CLASS="navigation"> <p><hr> <table align="center" width="100%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="2"> <tr> <td><A HREF="mac.html"><img src="../icons/previous.gif" border="0" height="32" alt="Previous Page" width="32"></A></td> <td><A HREF="mac.html"><img src="../icons/up.gif" border="0" height="32" alt="Up One Level" width="32"></A></td> <td><A href="contents.html"><img src="../icons/next.gif" border="0" height="32" alt="Next Page" width="32"></A></td> <td align="center" width="100%">Macintosh Library Modules</td> <td><A href="contents.html"><img src="../icons/contents.gif" border="0" height="32" alt="Contents" width="32"></A></td> <td><a href="modindex.html" title="Module Index"><img src="../icons/modules.gif" border="0" height="32" alt="Module Index" width="32"></a></td> <td><A href="genindex.html"><img src="../icons/index.gif" border="0" height="32" alt="Index" width="32"></A></td> </tr></table> <b class="navlabel">Previous:</b> <a class="sectref" HREF="mac.html">Macintosh Library Modules</A> <b class="navlabel">Up:</b> <a class="sectref" HREF="mac.html">Macintosh Library Modules</A> <b class="navlabel">Next:</b> <a class="sectref" href="contents.html">Contents</A> <hr> <span class="release-info">Release 2.2, documentation updated on December 21, 2001.</span> </DIV> <!--End of Navigation Panel--> <ADDRESS> See <i><a href="about.html">About this document...</a></i> for information on suggesting changes. </ADDRESS> </BODY> </HTML>
