You could check out these slides from an Intro to Python talk I'm giving tonight: http://stromberg.dnsalias.org/~dstromberg/Intro-to-Python/ ...perhaps especially the Further Resources section at the end. The Koans might be very nice for you, as might Dive Into Python. BTW, if you're interested in Python and looking into Javascript anew, you might look at Pyjamas. It lets you write web apps in Python that also run on a desktop; you can even call into Raphael from it. Only thing about it is it's kind of a young project compared to most Python implementations. PS: I mostly came from C too - knowing C can be a real advantage for a Python programmer sometimes. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
