I have been learning Python for 2 months and I think it is time to buy a good book.I must say that I am experienced programmer in PHP and I am not a newbie in programming.So any suggestions which is the best book for me ?I am thinking to choose one of these two books(of course,other good books are welcomed): http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg...books&n=507846 and this http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg...books&n=507846
good books, have them both, "learning python" is just slightly more up to date.
once done with either of those, get this one to learn advanced text processing. not for beginners, "text processing" assumes you already know python quite well.
One problem with buying Python books is that things change rather rapidly, so your references become out of date fairly rapidly. I consider myself a Python pro (not expert or guru, just a pro ), and I don't own any Python books at all, I just use the online references as much as I can as well as the included documentation.
One book that has caught my eye is the "Python Cookbook" but that's available online for the most part anyway
