Hi! I got Foundations of Python Network Programming as
a gift but I don't know Python. My library has several
books called Beginning Python. One's by Wrox and the
other is by the author of the hacking python tutorial.
My question is how can I achieve my goal of becoming
ready for Foundations of Python Network Programming?
Which book should I start with? Is a tutorial better?
Any ideas of what syllabus(sp?) to follow? I really
want to tackle my Foundations book and I want to get
up to speed as quickly as I can. Thanks!

Hi,

What background do you come from? 
Can you already program in another language?

If you already program then just work through the Python tutor 
that comes with Python. That should be all you really need.
Ask any specific questions on this list.

If you are a complete beginner there is a web site that lists 
several tutors for non programmers (mine included) and 
the books you have should help too.
Anything you don't understand just ask here.
