pydoc
-----
:program:`pydoc` is a utlity that is installed when you install Python.
It allows you to quickly retrieve and search for documentation from your
shell. For example, if you needed a quick refresher on the
:mod:`time` module, pulling up documentation would be as simple as
.. code-block:: bash
$ pydoc time
The above command is essentially equivalent to opening the Python REPL
and running
.. code-block:: python
>>> help(time)
