1 help函数：查看模块、函数、变量的详细说明：

>>> help("json")
Help on package json:

NAME
    json

FILE
    /usr/lib/python2.7/json/__init__.py

MODULE DOCS
    http://docs.python.org/library/json

DESCRIPTION
    JSON (JavaScript Object Notation) <http://json.org> is a subset of
    JavaScript syntax (ECMA-262 3rd edition) used as a lightweight data
    interchange format.
    
    :mod:`json` exposes an API familiar to users of the standard library
    :mod:`marshal` and :mod:`pickle` modules. It is the externally maintained
    version of the :mod:`json` library contained in Python 2.6, but maintains
    compatibility with Python 2.4 and Python 2.5 and (currently) has
    significant performance advantages, even without using the optional C
    extension for speedups.

>>> help(json.JSONDecoder)
Help on class JSONDecoder in module json.decoder:

class JSONDecoder(__builtin__.object)
 |  Simple JSON <http://json.org> decoder
 |  
 |  Performs the following translations in decoding by default:

 |  +---------------+-------------------+
 |  | false         | False             |





• 查看函数：

>>> help(json.dump)
Help on function dump in module json:

dump(obj, fp, skipkeys=False, ensure_ascii=True, check_circular=True, allow_nan=True, cls=None, indent=None, separators=None, encoding='utf-8', default=None, **kw)
    Serialize ``obj`` as a JSON formatted stream to ``fp`` (a
    ``.write()``-supporting file-like object).
    
    If ``skipkeys`` is true then ``dict`` keys that are not basic types
    (``str``, ``unicode``, ``int``, ``long``, ``float``, ``bool``, ``None``)
    will be skipped instead of raising a ``TypeError``.
    
    If ``ensure_ascii`` is false, then the some chunks written to ``fp``
    may be ``unicode`` instances, subject to normal Python ``str`` to
    ``unicode`` coercion rules. Unless ``fp.write()`` explicitly
    understands ``unicode`` (as in ``codecs.getwriter()``) this is likely
    to cause an error.





2 dir函数：查看变量可用的函数或方法

>>> import sys
>>> dir(sys)

3 type函数：查看变量的类型

<type 'module'>
>>> type (json.__name__)
<type 'str'>
>>> type (json.decoder)
<type 'module'>




4 退出python命令行

windows: ctrl+z 回车
