The best mentor for Python is actually your Python interpreter. As a modern high-level language, Python's pretty helpful at finding problems - anything that it detects as an error will be reported with a thrown exception, with full traceback. Get to know your interpreter via its interactive mode (on Windows, I strongly recommend IDLE - much better editing/recall facilities than the command-line Python has), and work through the tutorial: http://docs.python.org/3/tutorial/index.html After that, just do things and do things and do more things, and you'll be Pythonning like an expert in no time... or rather, in about a week or so. :) And when you run into difficulties, this newsgroup/mailing list will be happy to help out. Just remember to post a minimal test-case for your problem, and *copy and paste* the error message with the full traceback - that can be the difference between a protracted debugging session and an almost reflex response from someone who can spot the problem straight off. Have fun! The world's a lovely place... ChrisA -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
