Some years ago I crossed over from C to Python myself. I found Python weird and incomprehensible at first, especially since I was effectively having to learn OO at the same time. I worked through the standard Python tutorial that comes with the Python manual, and kept an interactive Python interpreter session running in a terminal. It was tough for a while, but before long, something just seemed to 'click' and I 'got it'. There were still many things to learn - I'm still learning - but what has helped heaps has been the #python IRC channel on irc.freenode.net. Keep at it - it'll gel for you if you persist, and you're willing to do lots of experimenting. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
