I want to emphasize a point here, as i have done quite emphatically in
the past. The Python documentation, is the world's worst technical
writing. As far as technical writing goes, it is even worse than
Perl's in my opinion.
I think that this claim says more about its author than it does about its
subject.

Perl's and Python's docs, I no doubts.
