Before Python, let's work on your English.

Most the well known books on Python are pretty much the same, you might as well get this free one:

The only ones that stand out IMO are "Core Python Programming" and "Design Logic and Programming with Python"

All you need to learn Python is dir() and help(). I wish we could stop having these threads.

Untrue, you have to learn the syntax first. That's half an hour of your life you'll never get back.

Omg.  Why don't you just 'know' how to program?  Asking for a good to book to learn how to program on a programming board?  Fucking blasphemy.

It's ok to ask us which book to learn from. The answer is always the same. http://www-mitpress.mit.edu/sicp/full-text/book/book.html

This may be too difficult for you to understand, but there are programming communities for absolute beginners, where questions like these are appropriate; programming communities for intermediate or generalist programmers, where they're obnoxious; and specialised programming communities for advanced programmers, where they're absurd.
Guess which /prog/ is.

Hint: it's not the first or third. Go back to /pr/.

The sad truth is that there are no good beginner communities, because even if they start out with a decent core of experienced programmers to help the newbies, the inevitable flood of idiots incapable of searching and reading without their mommies holding their hands will either drown them out or cause them to leave.
At best, they devolve into a never-ending tragedy of the self-important blind leading the obnoxious blind.

I don't know about Python, but I've never experienced anything bad from Perlmonks or #perl-help the old days. Another thing is that Perl docs are awesome and you rarely need any human to help you, again, I don't know how does it go with Python.

Since these are people who not only use Perl, but actually help other people get into it, I'd say that cleanly falls into the category of ``blind leading the blind''.
