new and looking for specific type of help

Basically, what you are asking for is to duplicate what is already contained in the Python Documentation. Probably an unintended mistake on your part was to try and learn from "Learning Python The Hard Way", for which you will find no fans for either the book or it's author on this forum.  Most books, tutorials, videos, etc. are geared for general knowledge and application, so no, you will seldom find one that goes "in depth".  There just isn't time or space to do this.  That's not to say the information doesn't exist, you just need to spend a little time looking for it.  A good site is Packt Publishing, which offers free downloads (in various formats) of some of the books they publish, including Python.  We also offer a list of resources on the form:Python Resources.

Is there a be all to end all resource out there...no.  Sometimes, the journey is more enjoyable than the destination.
