  I actually hear about quite often. Being determined to learn python (once time allows), I'm wondering if "learn python the hard way" is good. Does anyone on HN have any experience on it? I'll give it a try anyway, but any feedback regarding this particular way or any other way to learn python is welcome! :-)

    It's a great beginning tutorial in python. I've been coding C/C++ for ~4 years, and when I went through LPTHW, I found it frustratingly oversimplified.

      Yeah, "learn python the hard way" is the book I wished I read before I knew anything about programming. it's really a great book, but it targets people who have very little experience in programming.

        Thanks! Sounds exactly like what I need. The last time I even SAW any code were some DOS command lines during my studies.
