Python the language? Its reference manual is online.
<http://docs.python.org/lib/lib.html>

If you go to the index page and look under "hex", you will see a link
for "hex() (built-in function)", which is what you want.

There's also <http://docs.python.org/ref/ref.html>, which is
lower-level -- it deals with core language constructs. I wind up going
there only when I'm trying to do something exotic.

why we had to explicitly pre load an array using
brute force (the elegant way didn't work) and things like that.

That is probably a programming question rather than a reference
library question. It is usually possible to do that sort of thing
elegantly in Python.



Thanks, I'll forward the information to my guy's
