Python Module of the Week

PyMOTW is a series of blog posts written by Doug Hellmann. It was started as a way to build the habit of writing something on a regular basis. The focus of the series is building a set of example code for the modules in the Python standard library.

Complete documentation for the standard library can be found on the Python web site at http://docs.python.org/.
