python is pretty easy if you have experience in other languages. if you have an idea for a script and can understand the scripts already out there try writing it :-) it doesnt take all that long.
if you find you cant figure out how to do something in python check http://rgruet.free.fr/pqr2.3.html out and if you still cant figure it out ask here :-) happy coding.
Python is very user-friendly for beginners. I mean that the syntax of Python is extremely easy to learn and read. Another point is it is widely used in overall web development and hacking ( if you want to pick that path ). Machine Learning is very popular among companies these days. It has a brilliant framework you probably heard of i.e Django. Python made my code in a more beautiful way in other languages as well and I need not think anymore how to achieve a certain thing.
