[Tutor] Getting Started with Python

Hi Will,

do a search in the archives, plenty of similar discussions, even just
few days ago. Try http://wiki.python.org/moin/BeginnersGuide/NonProgrammers

Once you learn the basics, look for Python for .NET, IronPython,
http://www.codeplex.com/Release/ProjectReleases.aspx?ProjectName=IronPython&ReleaseId=423.

I'm not sure how it measures up to C# nor whether it would be usable
in your work, but seems you could kill two flies in one hit that way.
