40 'identifiers': '\nIdentifiers and keywords\n************************\n\nIdentifiers (also referred to as *names*) are described by the\nfollowing lexical definitions:\n\n identifier ::= (letter|"_") (letter | digit | "_")*\n letter ::= lowercase | uppercase\n lowercase ::= "a"..."z"\n uppercase ::= "A"..."Z"\n digit ::= "0"..."9"\n\nIdentifiers are unlimited in length. Case is significant.\n\n\nKeywords\n========\n\nThe following identifiers are used as reserved words, or *keywords* of\nthe language, and cannot be used as ordinary identifiers. They must\nbe spelled exactly as written here:\n\n and del from not while\n as elif global or with\n assert else if pass yield\n break except import print\n class exec in raise\n continue finally is return\n def for lambda try\n\nChanged in version 2.4: ``None`` became a constant and is now\nrecognized by the compiler as a name for the built-in object ``None``.\nAlthough it is not a keyword, you cannot assign a different object to\nit.\n\nChanged in version 2.5: Using ``as`` and ``with`` as identifiers\ntriggers a warning. To use them as keywords, enable the\n``with_statement`` future feature .\n\nChanged in version 2.6: ``as`` and ``with`` are full keywords.\n\n\nReserved classes of identifiers\n===============================\n\nCertain classes of identifiers (besides keywords) have special\nmeanings.

67 'types': '\nThe standard type hierarchy\n***************************\n\nBelow is a list of the types that are built into Python. Extension\nmodules (written in C, Java, or other languages, depending on the\nimplementation) can define additional types. Future versions of\nPython may add types to the type hierarchy (e.g., rational numbers,\nefficiently stored arrays of integers, etc.).\n\nSome of the type descriptions below contain a paragraph listing\n\'special attributes.\' These are attributes that provide access to the\nimplementation and are not intended for general use. Their definition\nmay change in the future.\n\nNone\n This type has a single value. There is a single object with this\n value. This object is accessed through the built-in name ``None``.\n It is used to signify the absence of a value in many situations,\n e.g., it is returned from functions that don\'t explicitly return\n anything. Its truth value is false.\n\nNotImplemented\n This type has a single value. There is a single object with this\n value. This object is accessed through the built-in name\n ``NotImplemented``. Numeric methods and rich comparison methods may\n return this value if they do not implement the operation for the\n operands provided. (The interpreter will then try the reflected\n operation, or some other fallback, depending on the operator.) Its\n truth value is true.\n\nEllipsis\n This type has a single value. There is a single object with this\n value. This object is accessed through the built-in name\n ``Ellipsis``. It is used to indicate the presence of the ``...``\n syntax in a slice. Its truth value is true.\n\n``numbers.Number``\n These are created by numeric literals and returned as results by\n arithmetic operators and arithmetic built-in functions. Numeric\n objects are immutable; once created their value never changes.\n Python numbers are of course strongly related to mathematical\n numbers, but subject to the limitations of numerical representation\n in computers.\n\n Python distinguishes between integers, floating point numbers, and\n complex numbers:\n\n ``numbers.Integral``\n These represent elements from the mathematical set of integers\n (positive and negative).\n\n There are three types of integers:\n\n Plain integers\n These represent numbers in the range -2147483648 through\n 2147483647. (The range may be larger on machines with a\n larger natural word size, but not smaller.) When the result\n of an operation would fall outside this range, the result is\n normally returned as a long integer (in some cases, the\n exception ``OverflowError`` is raised instead). For the\n purpose of shift and mask operations, integers are assumed to\n have a binary, 2\'s complement notation using 32 or more bits,\n and hiding no bits from the user (i.e., all 4294967296\n different bit patterns correspond to different values).\n\n Long integers\n These represent numbers in an unlimited range, subjectnds the execution stack, at\n each unwound level a traceback object is inserted in front of\n the current traceback. When an exception handler is entered,\n the stack trace is made available to the program. (See section\n *The try statement*.) It is accessible as ``sys.exc_traceback``,\n and also as the third item of the tuple returned by\n ``sys.exc_info()``. The latter is the preferred interface,\n since it works correctly when the program is using multiple\n threads. When the program contains no suitable handler, the\n stack trace is written (nicely formatted) to the standard error\n stream; if the interpreter is interactive, it is also made\n available to the user as ``sys.last_traceback``.\n\n Special read-only attributes: ``tb_next`` is the next level in\n the stack trace (towards the frame where the exception\n occurred), or ``None`` if there is no next level; ``tb_frame``\n points to the execution frame of the current level;\n ``tb_lineno`` gives the line number where the exception\n occurred; ``tb_lasti`` indicates the precise instruction. The\n line number and last instruction in the traceback may differ\n from the line number of its frame object if the exception\n occurred in a ``try`` statement with no matching except clause\n or with a finally clause.\n\n Slice objects\n Slice objects are used to represent slices when *extended slice\n syntax* is used. This is a slice using two colons, or multiple\n slices or ellipses separated by commas, e.g., ``a[i:j:step]``,\n ``a[i:j, k:l]``, or ``a[..., i:j]``. They are also created by\n the built-in ``slice()`` function.\n\n Special read-only attributes: ``start`` is the lower bound;\n ``stop`` is the upper bound; ``step`` is the step value; each is\n ``None`` if omitted. These attributes can have any type.\n\n Slice objects support one method:\n\n slice.indices(self, length)\n\n This method takes a single integer argument *length* and\n computes information about the extended slice that the slice\n object would describe if applied to a sequence of *length*\n items. It returns a tuple of three integers; respectively\n these are the *start* and *stop* indices and the *step* or\n stride length of the slice. Missing or out-of-bounds indices\n are handled in a manner consistent with regular slices.\n\n New in version 2.3.\n\n Static method objects\n Static method objects provide a way of defeating the\n transformation of function objects to method objects described\n above. A static method object is a wrapper around any other\n object, usually a user-defined method object. When a static\n method object is retrieved from a class or a class instance, the\n object actually returned is the wrapped object, which is not\n subject to any further transformation. Static method objects are\n not themselves callable, although the objects they wrap usually\n are. Static method objects are created by the built-in\n ``staticmethod()`` constructor.\n\n Class method objects\n A class method object, like a static method object, is a wrapper\n around another object that alters the way in which that object\n is retrieved from classes and class instances. The behaviour of\n class method objects upon such retrieval is described above,\n under "User-defined methods". Class method objects are created\n by the built-in ``classmethod()`` constructor.\n',
