Hi all,
I am an experienced C programmer, I have done some perl code as well.
But while thinking about large programs,I find perl syntax a
hinderance.
I read Eric Raymonds article reagrding python,(http://
www.linuxjournal.com/article/3882).

And it kind of convinced me to learn Python,I have searched
comp.lang.python for books,
but there is so much information available that I feel lost,Some site
suggests a perticular book
is verybad, whilesome other gives it a 5star rating.


>From all the posts/article I have understood that I need atleast 2
python books
one from each of the 2 following categories,

1.introduction/tutorial
2.reference

For introduction I am thinking about 'Learning Python' and for
reference I am thinking about 'Python Bible'.

I need your suggestions on this.

Thanks in advance
