Really? I've seen the Dietel C++ and Java books, and did not find
them very good. They weigh a ton and have a lot of information, but
the index wasn't very good for "random access". Do you (or does
anyone else) know if the Python book is better than the C++/Java
books?
If I've already gone through the OReilly books (except the cookbook)
and Dr Mertz' Text Processing, is there much/anything to be gained
from the Dietel book?
Thanks,
