Have you tried the *tutorials* on www.python.org ? They are quite in-depth,
on various topics. And for most of the topics it doesn't address, it has
pointers to other documentation.

;) Add some string operations, definition of functions and classes, and
you're basically done. Browsing the standard library is good practice, too,
