You most certainly have the basic python installed already.
It's one of the required packates for Ubunto.  If you want to
do programming, you may want to install some extra stuff like
Idle:

Quoting from the page above:

  "Ubuntu comes up with the command line version of python
   pre-installed."

I really do not recommend installing from source for somebody
like you who knows nothing about Python or Linux.  Can explain
why you think you want to install Python from source instead of
using the Python that's already installed on your computer?
