Hmm, the language reference is targeted at people *implementing* Python, not people who are learning to use it (though it is valuable for them also). It would be rather overwhelming for a beginner, IMO. You should instead be directing newcomers to beginner documentation, such as <URL:https://wiki.python.org/moin/BeginnersGuide> and especially the Python tutorial <URL:http://docs.python.org/3/tutorial/>. -- \ “If you get invited to your first orgy, don't just show up | `\ nude.
