HOW DO I PYTHON

Name: Anonymous 2012-07-21 8:56

What's a good tutorial that will ease my pain in my transition to Python and FIOC due to job-related shit? The one on python.org is tedious and looks like it's intended for non-programmers

* On FIOC: It just means that if any formatting is damaged in a copy-paste then the code can not only "not work", but actually still work just with a bug that can go unnoticed due to some extra/less indentation level somewhere. But yes that is minor. People should be formatting their code nicely anyways.
* There is some OOP retardation like requiring `self' to be declared as the first argument to any method.
* Default arguments are evaluated once so if you want a blank list/dict/object default arg you've gotta do something like make it None and then inside the function if thatArg is None: thatArg = []
* It is ``object-oriented'' but has no interfaces or abstract classes or conveniences like those.
* Threading to gain speed in a task that can be parallelized is fucked.
* Minor, but the stdlib is inconsistent in naming convention, and you end up with import ThatModule, another_module, thirdmodule.
