Please learn how Python itself can help you:

    $ python
    Python 2.7.3 (default, Jan  2 2013, 13:56:14) 
    [GCC 4.7.2] on linux2
    Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
    >>> import os
    >>> help(os.walk)
    Help on function walk in module os:

    walk(top, topdown=True, onerror=None, followlinks=False)
        Directory tree generator.
        ...
        Example:

        import os
        from os.path import join, getsize
        for root, dirs, files in os.walk('python/Lib/email'):
           ...

In general, the builtin help() function displays the documentation for
either a single function or a whole module.

ciao, lele.
