Hey all, I am doing a module at university that requires me to write a DNS server in python. It's with the computer science department and I'm not doing computer science, so they already assume that everyone has experience using python and aren't going through any introductory stuff or basics. I do have some experience with java, C and visual basic, so I do know know how to code, so I don't necessarily need something that will teach my the concepts of programming, just something that goes through the syntax of Python and any pecularities of the language really.

Does anyone have any recommendations for online materials which they found helpful when learning python themselves?

I have just now finished skim reading "Python for Informatics" by Charles Severance which is a pretty decent introduction for people with no prior programming experience at all. There is a print book of course, but handily there is a free eBook version too.

I'm working my way through the course at codeacademy.com and I like it. My only complaint is that their servers seem to be overloaded and I constantly get connection problems.
