huh?

pretty much every function in libc is in a section 3 man page:

man 3 printf

lower level functions are in section 2:

man 2 read

(usually you can just do man func, but sometimes there's a clash between
a system function and a user command. so man printf will give you info
on the shell util called printf, not the c function call).

now that's all c specific. for python, perl, and others there are man
pages as well, but what ones in particular are you interested in?
