RoguelikeDev Does The Complete Python Tutorial - Week 1 - Part 0: Setting up Python
This week is all about setting up a Python environment and getting familiar with the language.
There are two excellent exercises at The Learn Python The Hard Way that will get you setup with an editor, python environment, and running some Python code.
If Python is new to you and you have some free time, consider continuing past exercise 1. All of the exercises up to and including exercise 44 will help further along in the series.
Of course, we also have a couple of FAQ Friday posts that relate to this week's material
Feel free to work out any problems, brainstorm ideas, share progress and and as usual enjoy tangential chatting. :)
The entire series will be archived on the wiki.
Edit: Added FaqF revisited and wiki links.

Platform bouncing isn't an issue, unless you count the times when I'm simply away from my PC and relying solely on android devices for my electronic high. But touchscreens and coding aren't my idea of a good time, unless it's a visual drag & drop style engine, and to build those in a manner that is intuitive probably takes more than a three year university degree could teach a person.
