Answer 1

There are lots of people here that can help with python, check your work, answer questions, etc.

Answer 2

thanks!

Answer 3

Depending on your level of programming and math skills coupled with your goals, I would suggest you start with one of a few ways:

Goal Programming to learn Computer Science methods or Deal with Information?

CS Path:
How is your math and programming?

Need work in both OR no programming skills:
Start with the MIT 6.189 course materials
Use the first 10 short videos here to get up to speed:

Use http://www.greenteapress.com/thinkpython/ as a free book.

Math needs work, but some programming:
Use MIT 6.00 2008
Same book, same The New Boston.

Good in math, know some programming:
Use MIT 6.00 2011 (It is more math intense and challenging)
Same book, same The New Boston.


Informatics path:
Pretty much a full course on Python for Informatics:
http://www.pythonlearn.com/book.php
Then follow with one of the MIT classes to see the more Comp Sci view of things. Which will depends on math skills.

Answer 4

Oh, and the Python Learn has videos by the author, who is a professor on the topic that has written standards and knows his stuff back to front. So it is 100% as good as the MIT stuff, just focuses on informatics rather than comp sci.
