The Python docs aren't really for learning, they're more for
reference once you know what you're doing. You'll be happy they're
there later, but they're not much help at the beginning.
I just wrote an intro Python tutorial myself. It's a bit basic,
but maybe someone will get some use out of it.

Also let me know what you think of GitHub's accessibility for full
screen readers, I'm curious.

I looked a bit at "learn python the hard way"
and it seems a bit harsh for my tastes.
My wife uses the below tutorial, and giving it a look it seems
accesssible
with reasonable explanations. It does get pretty advanced
pretty quickly,
but nobody's looking, you only need to read what you want.

BTW, the actual python documentation is written in what I call
"nerdian",
I suppose they try to cover all possible ramifications of
everything, but I
find it to be the last resort when desperate.
It's another of the curses of linux, the best thing about linux
is that it's
fully documented;
and
the worst thing about linux is that it's fully documented!

All the above are statements of a relative python newby and no
claims of
accuracy or utility are made.
