The 2nd is quite old, but everything you need to know about Python to be productive in {{{ScrumPy}}} can be found here. More recent versions are, of course, fine |

The official Python documentation can be found [[http://docs.python.org/tutorial/index.html | here]]. This tutorial moves quite rapidly, and in later sections assumes some knowledge of computer science/programming. Remember, you don't need to be a programmer to use {{{ScrumPy}}} (and learning to use {{{ScrumPy}}} is not at all the same thing as learning programming !). |

Why Python ?
Knowing syntax vs programming
Inbuilt types and classes
int, float, str, list and dict
Classes and sub-classes
Repetiton and Decisions
Functions
Modules and Packages
Standard libraries
Not all of them ! In practice math and random are the most commonly with ScrumPy. sys and os are also useful - any other suggestions ?
