Learning Python as a newbie

Now a days if you want to automate any task with any vendor like Infoblox or F5, they all provide API's to do what you need. What does that mean? I'm learning that API's are ways to do just about everything you would desire to do with an application but you need a front end like Python or PHP or Perl. With Infoblox and F5 the two preferred methods of utilizing the API's is Python and Perl (pretty much in that order) and that's why you are reading this under the Python Topic. This will be the steps I take to learn how to use Python to do some tasks in Infoblox and F5.

I am starting off with this site: https://wiki.python.org/moin/BeginnersG ... rogrammers

Next I plan on checking out all the sites listed here: https://wiki.python.org/moin/BeginnersGuide/Programmers

It might not hurt to see what https://www.codecademy.com/ has to offer (for free) to learn Python.
