The "standard" docs (most of the docs you can reach directly from http://www.python.org/doc/ -- including the tutorial) aren't intended to teach somebody how to program and assume the reader has a basic grounding in programming and language theory. There are plenty of books and tutorials that are aimed at teaching programming and Python at the same time. You can find some of via the links listed under "Additional documentation" at http://www.python.org/doc/ -- particularly here: http://wiki.python.org/moin/BeginnersGuide/NonProgrammers > That just doesn't sound right. -- Grant Edwards grante Yow!
