I want to learn python as quick as possible, for web programming at first,
and applications later on. Any leads?



Hi, I'd start with the basic python tutorials, then have a look at something like CherryPy (http://www.cherrypy.org/) or Quixote (http://www.quixote.ca/) for the initial web stuff - there are others, too. Try & read around each a bit, e.g. web site/mailing lists, then download & give ones you fancy a try.



I would politely disagree here. You need to walk before you can run. If you haven't done _any_ web programming before, it's probably best to do a small web app using just python's cgi module. I would think that CherryPy and Quixote are complex web tools/frameworks that I wouldn't recommend to someone new to web programming until they got their feet wet doing some basic web programming. After that, then explore more advanced web programming with CherryPy or Quixote.

If you have done some basic web programming in other languages, then ignore this message.

Mike
