[Tutor] List exercise

I'm biased, but really it doesn't matter which one *I* think is best. 
What matters is which *you* think is best....Different strokes 
for different folks etc.

The good thing about Python is that there are at least 4 good 
tutors for complete beginners. Thats about 3 more than for most 
languages.

If one doesn't work for you then try one of the others, anything you learn 
on one will transfer to the others fairly seamlessly so you should cruise 
through the early stages till you get to the next hurdle. The new approach 
might make it clearer than the previous one.

Do the examples, try modifying them and make sure you understand 
what changed and why. If stuck as on the list. Have fun.

Enjoy,
