Read the online 'tutorial'. After that you have many choices:
- Learning Python
- Quick Python Book
- etc.
I have printout of all online docs, except 'library'. But, I still
prefer and recommend a bound book. I refer to 'language' and 'library'
references only when I have syntax or library problems.
