In python I can get some rudimentary documentation for any object using help(<object>)
. But to be able to search the documentation, I have to go online. This isn't really helpful if I'm somewhere where the internet isn't accessible.
In R, there is a handy double question mark feature (??<topic>
) that allows me to search through the documentation of all installed libraries for any function that includes <topic>
in its name or documentation string. Is there anything similar for python? Perhaps even just for loaded objects?
Look in the python folder in the folder: Doc
. This folder has the entire downloaded documentation of the python docs from python.org. I know this is a VERY late answer, but it brings up an easy solution.
