Help on built-in function find:

Erm, getting what you want from help can be work.

Help(find)  #  doesn't work at all.


How would Python know whether you want find for gettext, mmap, str, xml.etree.ElementTree.Element or xml.etree.ElementTree.ElementTree? Those are the ones listed in the Windows compiled help file for Python 3.3. You could of course have your own find methods or functions, and have yet more from third party libraries.
