python books

http://greenteapress.com/thinkpython/thinkpython.html

Is this book for python 3 or 2? There are a few footnotes that talk about differences between the two, but I can't figure out which one of them the actual code examples in the book are "compatible" with.

yeah, i don't know shit about programming.

If you're such beginner, then for the fuck sake, read http://floating-point-gui.de/ before dealing with reals.

Disregarding all of that, python site has decent tutorial and decent problem list if you'll run out of exercises.
