Let me help out here. The problem appears to be that there is some reluctance to talk in complete sentences, with verbs, subjects, prepositions, punctuation and capitalization. Let's try to do this the right way: "The Django Book", written by Jacob and Adrian, is based on Django 0.96. As such, it's a little out of date. Most of the stuff in this book is still relevant, but there are a few areas (such as the discussions about the admin interface) where it is out of date. James Bennett's "Practical Django Projects" was published quite recently, so it is more up to date. However, due to the rapidly evolving nature of Django at the moment, there will be some minor discrepancies between the book and v1.0. "Dive Into Python" is a good general Python reference. It is available for free online, as well as a 'dead tree' version. It is a little bit old, but Python as a language hasn't changed that much since it was published - there isn't anything in this book that has been deprecated or is likely to confuse. See - that wasn't hard. It takes one message, and it's unambiguous. As a side benefit, the single message works standalone in the archive. Centuries from now, archaeologists will be able to determine what the hell was going on by reading a single message. Please, people - when a thread is turning into dozens of one line replies which reduce to "that isn't what I meant", please consider that maybe TXT SPK might not be the right way to communicate effectively with other professionals. :-) Russ Magee %-) --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.

The django book is based on version 0.96 and it last updated on December 2007.

Re: Must Have Python resources
I would say I learned the most about python in one go when I started reading through the django source code! Activestate's "python cookbook" is invaluable, and the online books "Dive into Python" and "Thinking in python" are great.

Must Have Python resources
Hey. Well, I know this question isn't related to Django but I hope it is ok to ask. What are your favourite Python resources? I'm a Java developer and currently learning Python. I got "Learning Python, 3rd Edition" and "Beginning Python" and the Django book. Do you suggest a must have book or reference for a serious Python programmer? Thanks. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
