[Tutor] Newbie

[D-Man]

Ok,  I think Daniel is a bit more experienced than I am.  I read the tutorial after I already knew Eiffel, C++, Java, and C (and was in my second year of Software Engineering here at RIT).

I liked the tutorial, but maybe I was familiar enough with programming to understand it.

:-)

 | Dear Shawn,
 | 
 | Time to start sowing internal discord... *grin*  I don't recommend the
 | official tutorial at:
 | 
 |     http://python.org/doc/current/tut/tut.html
 | 
 | At least, not until you're more familiar with programming.  It's ok to
 | take a brief glance at it, but it's the "deep end of the pool".
 | 
 | 
 | On the other hand, I think you're better off with the Introductions
 | section of python.org here:
 | 
 |     http://python.org/doc/Intros.html
 | 
 | You can get a lot out of the "Introductions to Python programming for
 | non-programmers" section on that page.
 | 
 | 
 | Good luck!
