Hi, I am starting my honours degree project and part of it is going to be manipulating ASCII encoded XML files from a legacy database and converting them to Unicode and doing text processing stuff on the data.
I am new to python ( total n00b ) but am keen to use it as the rest of the software my application has to extend is already written in python, plus I've always wanted to learn more about it - so here's my chance :-) I've written stuff in Java and Perl so I expect I'll pick up the basics without too much trouble. Can anyone point out some good "Python & Unicode" and "Python & Text processing" resources on the net to get me started? Any good book recommendations? Thanks a lot for your help. -- Mr Anthony Hornby RHCE BIT ALIATEC Library Systems & Technology Coordinator Charles Darwin University | CRICOS 300K [EMAIL PROTECTED] | office +61 8 89 466011 -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
