For an informal introduction to the language, see <a class="reference internal" href="../tutorial/index.html#tutorial-index"><em>The Python Tutorial</em></a>. For C or C++ programmers, two additional manuals exist: <a class="reference internal" href="../extending/index.html#extending-index"><em>Extending and Embedding the Python Interpreter</em></a> describes the high-level picture of how to write a Python extension module, and the <a class="reference internal" href="../c-api/index.html#c-api-index"><em>Python/C API Reference Manual</em></a> describes the interfaces available to C/C++ programmers in detail.</p> <div class="toctree-wrapper compound"> <ul> <li class="toctree-l1"><a class="reference internal" href="introduction.html">1.
