title: Alternative python documentation
body: <p>I've been checking out docs.python when I need something, is that the right site to be using? I come from java, and docs.python looks more like a tutorial site than a documentation site.</p>
  
  <p>For example, when I lookup a class in the java api reference, <strong>at a glance</strong> I know all of its return types, method names and params, very simple, very effective website. With docs.python I have to read ALL of the method descriptions if I want to find a method that returns X...they dont have a short list of all the methods with no descriptions, and the method descriptions dont even tell you what exceptions are raised... there has to be a better site.</p>
  
  <p>I've been playing around with python, I like the way it has less bloat, more tricks, but not being able to quickly look things up is killing me, <strong>reading full pages of mostly useless information is interupting my train of thought.</strong></p>
  
  <p>EDIT
  Downvoters, I'm really trying to use this language here so... if you think I'm doingitwrong and have any suggestions... maybe explain how you roll because I've googled, binged, yandex'd duckduckgo'd and found no good suggestions, you cant be using docs.python... sure I could use a combo of dir() help() and doc.python, but thats beyond a joke.</p>
  
  <p>EDIT
  Ok, much to learn I still have, maybe when I learn python a little better I'll understand why the docs are the way they are, I suppose I should be happy there even is documentation :P</p>
  
  <p>Thanks for the input folks</p>
