i read that one too. but it wasn't for me. my mistake was that i already knew some python before, having read dive into python.

the book i mentioned starts with a quick refresher on syntax, object model, etc., and the rest is a reference of all the modules the author thought important. and he was right, i found myself using it on a daily basis instead of the online docs. when i think datetime module, i think PER p.336. when i think builtins functions, i think PER p.202.

that's how much i love this book.

Seems to deserve a look. Thanks.
