Learning Python

I have heard about Python over and over and over again and for reasons not known I have ignored Python over and over again!! But not anymore, I have finally decided to learn python and that too in the right way!

So, the other day  while coming back from the college library I picked up two of the books on python(Learning Python and Beginning Python) and have started reading about python. I did read a couple of pages and this is what I have to summarize:

• Python is dynamic object oriented language
• works on Windows, Linux/Unix and MAC OSes apart from a range of other OS
• has simple syntax and is modular with hierarchical packages
• newer modules can be added and modules written in C/C++, Java and even .net framework supported
• used extensively and the demand is increasing day by day
• And finally its open source!

All the above points make python a language I definitely want to learn and I am cursing myself for not learning it for so long.  So, do check back soon as I will post about my progress of learning python. Do suggest any resources/ articles/ books on python that you might know in the comments section.
