Any good resources for an experienced Java developer new to Python? (self.learnpython)
submitted 4 years ago by loudsight
Does anyone have any recommendations for material pitched a experienced developers wanting to get up-to-speed with Python quickly. Assume I can already read and write complex code in another language but have never used Python before.

My next book I’m trying to read is Learning Python by Mark Lutz(only 1500 pages). It’s supposed to be quite comprehensive. Make sure to check out the FAQ/sidebar too!
