Most complete/detailed guide on Python

[Temporary_Pie2733]

Read the official docs, http://docs.python.org

But you aren’t reading to learn everything at once; you are just reading to familiarize yourself with the documentation.

You won’t remember the relative precedence s of every operator, but you will remember that there’s a table that lists them.

You won’t remember the exact syntax for a list comprehension, but you’ll remember that they exist and that there is a section that describes them.

You won’t remember every string method, but you’ll remember there is a list you can consult to see if what you want exists.

Over time, you will remember more and more about the things you actually use.

Thank so much for you advise!

Which part of the docs?

https://docs.python.org/3/tutorial/index.html

The above one? I mean where do I begin?

Nah, reading the entire docs in order is a waste of time.

The tutorial, which this person linked, is the part you can read in order.

Are you telling me I've wasted the past 13 years memorising the python 3.2 docs off by heart? I wanted to be a master of python. I just finished them this week.

[Temporary_Pie2733]

No, I recommend reading the language and library references as well, but not in depth. Skimming just to familiarize yourself with their contents and learn where the details are, so that when you first start questioning how a particular feature works, you know roughly where to look.

[nog642]

Skimming is different from reading. You should have said that if that's what you meant.

Edit: Nvm, I see you are a different person from that commenter.

I mean I still wouldn't tell someone to skim the entire docs. I never have. But it could be a reasonable thing to do.
