    Great books on Python?


    I am not unfamiliar to programming but a newbie in Python. Could you
    recommend me (a) great book(s) to start with? Free online books or
    solid books are welcome.

    Thanx in advance.

    I'd call Dive Into Python a reference, it's an extremely clear yet
    pythonic book, and it's available online for free.

    And I guess that you already checked it, but the Python's Tutorial is --
    of course -- imperative.

          O'Reilly's Learning Python Second Edition covers up to version 2.3 and
          presumes a bit of knowledge with C. I've found it well written with a
          rather low count of errors.
