Dear Friends, I am writing for some assistence from an expert. I give you a short background to understand my need. (for your information I work with a macbook normally), but I do have desktop in Microsoft) I am not a programmer. My work has to do with old manuscripts and Philosophy. But recently, being in need of building a web site I did learn alone some html, dreamweaver, css and I made two web sites who came out pretty good. So, I have done of it my hobby, since I do like web design. But now I would like to go further, although remaining always an hobby. I would like to learn some programming, since I wish to build a program to run a database. Mybe more in the future if this goes well. I have some text, several books, text format. I want to make a program to vew and research these texts. Perhaps on a cd and on a desktop.
On the internet I have read that an easy to learn and yet powerful language to start with is python. Now my questions: 1) Is python enough and complete to build a simple program of the kind deskribed above? 2) Will I be able to build standalone program with it? 2) where do I start learning? SOMETHING AS SIMPE AS POSSIBLE! Thank you very much Jerome
