Very interesting post. And I definitely agree with you that, as much as everyone seems to suggest the tutorial, I find it very difficult to actually learn from. It helps to provide a review for the language, but as a newbie, I really wouldn't have learned Python from it. I do, however, think the docs are pretty good, although I sometimes find myself just wishing that a function definition was simply laid out in an easy to read format that included all of its parameters, so I would know exactly what to pass to it (I guess help() is good for this though). -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
