I have been google fu-ing for a while, but my searchs are turning up about nothing. I was just wondering if anyone knows where I could get some free legal pdf's for learning python programmig. I use the net for a lot of tutorials but I will be cutting the internet in my apartment in six days so I need something to read while I am without any real entertainment. I would just goto the bookstore and buy paper books, but I am movign soon, and I don't want to translate them from Japanese

    Other than the official Python tutorial (which is a good read if you're somewhat familiar with programming in general) take a look at A Byte of Python. I'd also download the documentation for whichever version of Python that you'll be using since you'll want an API reference.

    PDF link about halfway down the page. This was an optional text for my intro to programming university course.

    So good so far. There is a text file that is on wiki books called Non Programmers guide to python that I am following and supposedly there is a downloadable version out there for free, but I can't seem to find it. I would really like that.
