Good morning, all,
I just start learning python and have a question regarding books for a
newbie like me.
If you are only allowed to buy 1 python book, which one will you pick? ^_^.
Thank you so much! 7 1394

I'd pick a reference. YMMV.

Hi,
If you have experience programming, just read the online tutorial at http://docs.python.org/tut/tut.html
I find Python Essential Reference (3rd Edition) (Developer's Library)
(Paperback) invaluable though. BTW I have the 2nd edition.

Seconded. It really is a wonderful introduction to Python. Once you've
digested that, the Python Library Reference in the docs is your best
friend. The nice thing about getting familiar with the official python
documentation is that it's always available to you.
Thank you all for your wonderful suggestion and advice.
Have a great evening!

WenSui, from the R list I think you are not a novice programmer. I'd
recommend Python in a Nutshell. Note there is a recent edition that
covers Python 2.5.
(I actually use almost exclusively Nuthsell --- and the pocket
reference which is small and inexpensive and i carry on my backpack
all the time).
Best,
R.
