Python Instruction Set

[oakberry]

Is there a simple, complete list of ALL Python commands that I can download?

I like to browse such lists to get ideas as well as having a handy reference.

Install xCHM.
Download the Python documentation in CHM format (from the windows Python download area).
Open it with xCHM and you have the complete documentation available, an active index and you can search in it.

What do you mean?

There can't be a list of all Python modules, as many are written by individuals and either not distributed, or not downloadable from popular sites.

Do you mean the function reference? Then look at https://docs.python.org/3/

Thanks all. Yes, I mean a list of all functions rather than modules.

I was hoping to be able to print it though.

It is still not clear what you actually want.

The words function and module have many different meanings.

I think you should start at: http://learnpythonthehardway.org/ so that you know the language basics and can describe the difference between a function and a module.

That Python learning book is free to read online at: http://learnpythonthehardway.org/book/ python & python3 are already installed in Raspbian and there's even an python interactive development environment (IDE) called IDLE (or IDLE3) on the GUI system.

Thanks both, I'm obviously being thick. I tried to use the words used by others!

When I am faced with an empty screen read to write some code, the items that I write I call, commands. These include things like:
For
Print
While

What their name is is not relevant for me I just would like a list showing their syntax.

Cheers..

Have you tried using google to search for things like "python for loop" or "python print" ?

I still think the first answer you were given meets your requirements...

Click on the link there for Python2.x Docs (unless you know you are writing Python3 of course...)

On the resulting page, headed "Python 2.7.10 documentation", click on Language Reference

That gives you documentation headed "The Python Language Reference"

On that page your chosen examples, for, print and while are defined and explained.

Cheers all!
