poromenos.org— This is a cool short tutorial on Python. It takes less than 10 minutes and it's very concise and to the point. (Warning: programming experience required).

This is a nice refresher and coverage on the Python Language's syntax, but just because I have read it now, does not mean that I have learned it.Although, once you learn one language, you can pretty much easily adapt to other languages once you learn their syntaxes.As long as you use similiar algorithms to solve problems, you have dramatically decreased the learning time.
@salsaman: "The page has an problem in the second code block:lstList = ["List item 1", 2, 3.14]lstList[0] = "List item 1 again"NO!"The code is okay. They're demonstrating how you can update a list item using array syntax. Your substituting of == would cause the statement to have no effect.

What would be the best language to learn first out of everything. I know HTML and CSS, but you cant really call those programming....

Yeah but with all that whitespace crap, can I forget in 10 minutes?

Hypertalk is still my favorite language of all time.

I appreciate the effort, but it's not worth the first page on Digg.I am against all this hurry. Take your time to learn Python.

Python is the first language I've been totally comfortable with.

Oh, you think cleaner, easier to read code is worse? Using something almost all good coders already do is bad? I don't understand your logic.

Perhaps use an editor with some decent tools?
