I've just installed python and IDLE on my ubuntu machine.

If anyone knows of any good tutorials to get me started, it would be greatly appreciated.

I've worked through some of the stuff I found online but could do with a few more resources

 

Cheers

Python is a great language if you're starting to program (I actually learnt it after C and still thought it was great). I love it's portability and the tools around to make easy graphical interfaces. Remember it's an interpreted language and although there are tools around to compile code it usually becomes sluggish and slow, so it's definitely not for commercial development from my experience. Just a heads up!

 

Theres lots of resources around. After a quick google this looks good (especially the fact they go over the standard lib):

You may want to head over to some programming forums and get involved

Thanks for the link Gibbs

I shall check it out when I have a bit more time.

Learning python is purely for my own interest at the moment, certainly not for any commercial projects
