Re: Learning Python - resources and ideas

Regarding rec.photo.equipment.35mm... this is not his fault.
Yesterday I tried posting to comp.lang.python and, for some strange
reason, it was posted momentarily to this group.

Regarding Cody's question:
If you are an absolute newby, try Josh Cogliati's python tutorial for
non-programmers (google this).
I learned the basics with it.

Then you can try any of the other resources listed in www.python.org.
If you're willing to buy a book, try "Learning Python 2nd.Ed" by Mark
Lutz or "Core Python" by Wesley Chun.

Regards,
Luis

Hi Cody,
rec.photo.equipment.35mm? -- kind of an odd follow-up for a post to
com.lang.python.
First thing is to learn to ask better questions. It is a bit hard for
anyone to know what to say without knowing your background and level
of experience with computers and programming.
 contains a lot of
very good advice on this.
As for actual learning resources, did you look at www.python.org at
all? (Or search the archives of this group?) The python site has a few
pages of links that speak directly to your question.
But, some concrete suggestions:
The most useful resources for me (I'm still learning, too) was the
Tutor list .
A free book that starts very slow (it is aimed at high-school
students) is 
I started with that, until I had a bit of a sense of things (Python is
my first language since some BASIC quite some time ago). The Learning
Python helped a lot .
Best,
Brian vdB
