Could you help a bitcoin novice and tell me where is the best technical documentation of the bitcoin client. And in which programming languages has it been implemented so far? I know the original is in C++ but any other like Python?

The Bitcoin network protocol was designed to be extremely flexible. It can be used to create timed transactions, escrow transactions, multi-signature transactions, etc. The current features of the client only hint at what will be possible in the future.

there are several wallets, but someone did a review a long time ago of the QT wallet, you can see it at the top of this sub forum.

There is a python protocol implementation called pynode that does some basic stuff like getting the blockchain. The bitcoin code is complex and fragile, it is the product of several years of continuous development by multiple individuals, so it can't be replicated without a LOT of work.
