Reading the Python Official Documentation is rugged (lemm.ee)

I am at a high-beginner/low-intermediate level in Python, and one thing that drives me nuts is how poorly I am able to read the Python official documentation and grok how to use the described code.

What's the secret? Are there any guides/videos/books that can help my understand how to approach reading it? Or, is it just one of those things that I need to just keep coming back to while coding, and eventually I will get the hang of it?

Read a good book instead. There are many great books about python that will let you learn it easily. I don't think learning it from the docs only is a great idea.
