I'd say python is good for general purpose programming.
Certainly what you're interested in doing python
can do quite well.

Check out "Learning Python" for a book to read.  It
will introduce you to programming in python.

As for making learning easy, it isn't particularly.
Program a lot, and you'll improve.
