Try python instead...

www.python.org is very much alive. It is the official home of python.

www.phyton.org however, is something completely different...

Write the following a thousand times:

Python is spelled python, not phyton or pyhton.
Python is spelled python, not phyton or pyhton.
Python is spelled python, not phyton or pyhton.
Python is spelled python, not phyton or pyhton.
....

Then try again...

I guess PHP is much easier to use, since it has only three letters... ;-)

PS: In case you still haven't found the language site:

http://www.python.org/

A quick look at the bottom of each mail should have revealed the address,
too:

... now, it works... :-)


What is the benefit using pyhton instead of PHP or JAVA (serversided)? It makes
we wonder, that the python.org uses php for dynamic web pages. So am I on the
wrong way using python for dynamic web pages with database access (mysql,
postgress,...)?

What makes you think python.org is using PHP? You have happened to find
a site called pyhton.org that seems to use PHP. At least to me that
seems to be two different places. Compyters are nit-pickers when it
comes to spelling.

everything. I am an idiot .-)...


my first and only contact with python is our mail server. the configuration
(systemcalls, pages (HTML)) based on python. so it is quit normal for me to ask
for the benefits for that tasks. but, in the end of the day, I am an normal idiot

I am writing a free book on Python, targeted at people just like you,
with experience in other scripting languages. So far, I've published
2.5 chapters of it on
http://diveintopython.org/. It won't teach you everything, but it's a
good place to start.

Want to do some serious web programmng with Python? ...check out Zope!
http://www.zope.org

But you are right http://www.python.org is waaay overdue for an overhaul.

Due to a lot business reshuffling last year of core Python team, the site
did not get the attention it deserved, and all key people were busy
developing Python 2.x code itself.

I imagine before long www.python.org swill be re-implemented with Zope, and
become a site to marvel at.

...stay tuned :-)

Volker,

You'll probably want to try the Python tutorial first (online at
http://www.python.org/doc/current/tut/tut.html ).

For printed books, check out "Learning Python" by Lutz (there is even a
German translation) or "The Quick Python Book" by Harms and McDonald.

"Python Essential Reference" is a very handy book. It has a 10 page
tutorial that may be enough to get you going especially if you've worked
through the "official" tutorial. The rest of the book pretty much lives
up to its billing. "Core Python" by Chun has gotten some good reviews,
but I haven't seen it yet.

The second edition of "Programming Python" by Lutz is due out in March
from O'Reilly, and I anticipate that it will be something you'll want to
evaluate once it comes out.

There are a couple of other "Buecher auf Deutsch" that I haven't seen an
English equivalent of, so I can't judge them. Look at
http://www.amk.ca/bookstore/non-english.html .

Hope that helps. Have fun.

It won't work. Any posting pointing out a spelling error will
itself contain a spelling error. It's one of the fundamental
laws of Usenet -- no amount of proofreading will help.
