Python References
If you're an experienced programmer, you can learn python by reading the tutorial that comes with
python (it's in the Doc directory of your python installation). You will likely be writing useful python
programs in an hour or two.
There are numerous introductory python books available. For a beginning programmer, Lutz's
Learning Python might be appropriate.
