Hi,

Hm, depends of course, how good your programming skills are in the languages you knwo already, but I rely on the book "Beginning Python - From Novice to Professional" by Magnus Lie Hetland, published by Apress.

And for GUI programming I use the official wxPython book. Both books are really worth their money and with some programming skills there's no need to read every line because it's easy to navigate through the books and find the function/structure/whatever you're looking for.

Best regards,
Matt

Hi,

I'm a C++, Java and C programmer, and I'm searching for a (preferably
printed) book that teaches me the "Python idioms", i.e. the "Python
way" of doing something.

Ideally, I'm searching for a book like "Effective C++" or "Effective
Java", that does not lose time teaching what is a class, or a
function, or a loop, but that enters into details and describes not
only the "how", but also the "why".

I read the book "Dive into Python", but I found too schematic and not
enough advanced for my interests.

I generally do not like books from O'Reilly, while I prefere those
from Addison Wesley.

Best regards.
