Where can I find those types of commands?

That you find when you're going to read (and study) files with the extension .py.

In addition to Pako's suggestions and advice's, I would like to add that one of the best resources is to use the Python Shell (that is available from the Help menu).

As example, start with 'import eg'. From there on it is just to start typing, beginning with 'eg.' and you will see what is happening every time you hit the dot (you get a menu with available selections). As a further example to your question, check the picture below
