I was looking for more documentation on how classes work and this book is really easy to understand.

Another really good tutorial is in the helpfile that comes with ActivePython 2.3. Condensed and concise, it tells you much in little time.

You mean the normal Python documentation that comes with every distribution? The one originally written by Guido van Rossum?

I believe that Active* is just a distribution, not the original code. The same group (ActiveState, I think) makes ActivePerl, ActivePython, and Active-a-few-other-things-too. They usually add their own stuff to the documentation, but very, very rarely add to or change the language itself. (which would render the code non-portable, which stinks, for perl/python/other similar scripting languages.)

Could be. That's what I have, so I don't know about the others, although I don't think the normal Python distro had this tutorial. Maybe they added it between the distros I had though.
