[Tutor] New dealing with Pythong and programming

[William Vargas]

Hello

My name is Will, I live in Costa Rica and I really want to learn how to
program. In the past, a friend said to me that was really cool but I did
not feel the call to learn, but now I was talking to a new friend and he
said to me code was really great then I ask what was the best language and
he said, well find the best language, find Python which I did.

But now here comes the question, I do not know anything about programming,
I heard about Integer, float and a bunch of this thing but I do not have a
clue what they are. Can you please guide me to find what they are (I know
of course there are more). I have installed Python version 2.7.8, my
computer is running windows 7 64 bits and I was recommended to install a
work editor which I did (DreamPie Python 2.7), this is just in case you
think I need to change something.

Are all of this things a constant for all the programming languages or are
there specific for Python?

I would like to start by understanding this concepts otherwise I will be
confused I guess.

Thank you for your time, this system really rocks, I do appreciate all what
you do for us the beginners.

Thank you
