I'm trying to figure out how to make a script/macro

How or where can I find out what functions exist, what they do and the proper syntax/sub options?

Right now i'm trying to figure out a script that does:

Select layers by layer name = Manual input A -> *string1*string2*string3*
For each layer that is true on above search:
Replace in layer name = Manual input B *string6*string8*

So basically I want to be able to do a Search & replace for all my layer names.

For example all springs TH-12-7 need to become TH-12~7

I want to be able to do:

Search layer names for *TH-12-7* 
Change for all results layer name part *TH-12-7* for *TH-12~7*

Mainly I would like to know, how I can figure out how to make such a script.
