[Tutor] Excited about python

[Albert-Jan Roskam]

My all-time favourite is Programming in Python 3 (Mark Summerfield) 
http://www.qtrac.eu/py3book.html

Most of it is not for absolute beginners. Some of the chapters contain stuff I 
still cannot wrap my brain around. I believe the chapter about regexes (which is 
VERY good) is freely downloadable.

 Cheers!!
Albert-Jan

For a handy reference, you can't beat "Python Essential  Reference" by David 
Beazley (along with the online documentation, of course!).  I think this book 
is obligatory if you are going to be working with Python a lot.  I own all 
four editions :)

But you wanted something more in depth with algorithms, etc.  The O'Reilly 
book "Programming Python" by Mark Lutz is a classic and is probably a good bet 
for you.  Core Python by Wesley Chun is also good, and I've seen him on this 
list from time to time.

Also, check out the Python wiki:
