This part describes the client programming interfaces distributed
with <span class="productname">PostgreSQL</span>. Each of these chapters can be
read independently. Note that there are many other programming
interfaces for client programs that are distributed separately and
contain their own documentation (<a class="xref" href="external-projects.html" title="Appendix H. External Projects">Appendix H</a>
lists some of the more popular ones). Readers of this part should be
familiar with using <acronym class="acronym">SQL</acronym> commands to manipulate
and query the database (see <a class="xref" href="sql.html" title="Part II. The SQL Language">Part II</a>) and of course
with the programming language that the interface uses.
