Re: [Tutor] What is the best book to start? - Many Thanks!
Hi Hoffman, I'd suggest Dive into Python which you can also find it on-line. The printed version is here: http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ISBN%3D1590593561/002-9100626-6616001 The best book I know is Core Python by Wesley Chun. But it only covers 1.6 so quite a few things have changed since then. http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/0130260363/qid=1112776154/sr=1-20/ref=sr_1_20/002-9100626-6616001?v=glances=books Best of luck, Steve On Apr 5, 2005 2:37 AM, Hoffmann [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi John, Certainly, I will check it out.

Re: [Tutor] What is the best book to start? - Many Thanks!
Dear All, I would like to thank all of you that kindly, answered my question regarding good Python books to start. As I told you guys before, I am a newbie and I decided to start studying Python, that seems to be a nice programming language. That was my first post in this group, and I appreciated your hints. Well, I will follow your hints... See you later, Hoffmann __ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo! Personals - Better first dates.

Re: [Tutor] What is the best book to start?
I am starting to studying Python. I have some previous experience with C (beginner level). Probably the standard tutorial on the web site is the best place for you to start. Learning Python by Lutz Ascher, And this is very good supporting material. Python How to Program by Deitel and others. And this is particularly good as an intro into the wider areas such as PyGame, XML/HTML GUIs and Network programming. The early chapters are done better IMHO by Lutz, aand the official tutor. Your next purchase should be either or both of: Python in a Nutshell - a great 'pocket' reference and Python Programming on Win32 - but only if you are using Windows of course! You have more than enough beginner material already. Alan G. ___ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
Re: [Tutor] What is the best book to start?
Hi All, I am starting to studying Python. I have some previous experience with C (beginner level). Could, anyone, please, suggest a good Python book? I have both Learning Python by Lutz Ascher, and Python How to Program by Deitel and others. Are those good books? Thanks. Hoffmann __ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!

Re: [Tutor] What is the best book to start?
I can only comment on what I know and I have the O'Reilly Python series which begins with the Learning Python book you have (if you have the 2nd ed.). Just getting started with Python myself. The first book has gone quite fast, but then I'm a retired software engineer. Even so, I think it would be very good for someone with limited programming experience. Now get your nose back in that book :~) Lee C On Mar 30, 2005, at 11:08 PM, Hoffmann wrote: Hi All, I am starting to studying Python. I have some previous experience with C (beginner level).

Very clear and well put book. A great investment. Cheers Bernard ___ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
