What are some good guides to Magento methods?

Question

Magento

Maybe of course I googled it, but I did not find anything sensible.
Tell me, is there something in the format:
method - description
...
And can someone tell me if there is an adequate Russian-language manual?

Answer 1

1) There are two versions of Magento, and there are significant differences
2) According to the first version, there are quite a large number of books that describe the basics of work and most of the necessary functions. You can find books on Amazon by rating, and then, if your conscience allows, you can search them on Google with the prefix pdf / djvu
3) I have not seen detailed and good manuals, especially in Russian.
4) Most of the information about methods comes from comments in the code. There are aggregators that parse the same comments from the code and post them in a readable form. But, these are still comments from the code.
