Internet Programming with Python

There is something about this book that made me finally get programming. Before reading this book I abhored the fuss-iness of programming. This book, and Python, made it possible for me to create pretty advanced (object-oriented) programs in very little time.

It introduces all programming constructs and basic datatypes like the tuple, dictionary and classes.

One of the best books about programming I know.

I am not sure what the “Internet” aspect in the title of this book is hinting at; The obvious HTML Generation chapter is boring, as with any book. The NSAPI extension chapter is about extending a C application with a Python interface and not about webserving.
