Unlike the other scripting languages I work with(like PHP, Ruby, JavaScript, etc.), I am not comfortable using Python. Thats because the Python documentation is nowhere near as good as the docs of the other languages. Its hard to find a function, its not available in the CHM format and its not detailed enough.

How hard is it to reverse an array? And you don't need the html docs:
>>> list.reverse.__doc__
'L.reverse() -- reverse *IN PLACE*'
What else is there to know?

Yes, Python manual is worse than PHP's, but PHP set the stake very high, mainly because of a huge user base. And I don't think that Py's manual is a reason not to use that language.
