  10 This file describes the built-in types, exceptions and functions and the
  11 standard modules that come with the Python system.  It assumes basic
  12 knowledge about the Python language.  For an informal introduction to
  13 the language, see the @cite{Python Tutorial}.
  14 The @cite{Python Reference Manual} gives a more formal definition of the
  15 language.  (These manuals are not  available in INFO or Texinfo format.)
