If you are sure you want a book and not online tutorials, then it's

Try "Learning Python" which is part of the O'Reilly series of books
they publish on computer programming. It's a good start. Most public

Yes:

Looks like x=x+[2] creats a new list to me:

Thanks, Kirk.
I considered the += as only a shorthand notation for the assignment
operator.
Since for lists + is simply a concatetation, I am not sure it x=x+[2]
is creating a brand
