I am new to programming and i really know nothing. I basically know what programming is like but dont know which programs i should get but i heard python is great for beginers. I was just wondering if i should download pythoon from the site and where i can learn to use python from. TY

Yes, python is a good choice for begginers.

Welcome to the forums!

BinaryStorm

Few tutorials for you :
http://www.freenetpages.co.uk/hp/alan.gauld/ (This one is for completely newbies to programming. If you have never programmed before, and Python is your first language, maybe you can learn something useful here.)

One very big tutorial - http://honors.montana.edu/~jjc/easytut/easytut/

http://hkn.eecs.berkeley.edu/~dyoo/p...tro/index.html (This one describes basics of IDLE, IDE for Python. It has lot of pictures....)

One more - http://npt.cc.rsu.ru/user/wanderer/O...or_Newbies.htm

http://www.rexx.com/~dkuhlman/python...ython_101.html (This one is very good. I recommend it.)

E-book "How to think like Computer scientist" - http://www.ibiblio.org/obp/thinkCSpy/

http://www.hetland.org/python/instant-hacking.php (This is probably the oldest Python tutorial you can find, but contains some useful info.)

---------
Just choose some tutorial, and start programming :p

That is included in the normal Python download as part of Python24.chm, at least for Windows.

I like http://www.byteofpython.info/
