The second sentence in http://docs.python.org/3/extending/index.html says:

  Those modules can define new functions but also new
  object types and their methods.

The word "but" doesn't make sense here. I suppose that the
author meant to write:

  Those modules can not only define new functions but
  also new object types and their methods.
