Each one of these objects is something python gives us for free without typing a single bit of code.
Each one of these objects is something python gives us for free without typing a single bit of code. We are not going to cover them all in this lesson but it helps to know they are there. If you look at the long list above you will see help. Lets give that one a try.

>>> help
Type help() for interactive help, or help(object) for help about object.
>>> help()
``Welcome to Python 2.7! This is the online help utility.

If this is your first time using Python, you should definitely check out
the tutorial on the Internet at http://docs.python.org/tutorial/.

Enter the name of any module, keyword, or topic to get help on writing
Python programs and using Python modules. To quit this help utility and
return to the interpreter, just type "quit".

To get a list of available modules, keywords, or topics, type "modules",
"keywords", or "topics". Each module also comes with a one-line summary
of what it does; to list the modules whose summaries contain a given word
such as "spam", type "modules spam".``
