Aside from intensive workshops like those offered by Joancarles Casasín and Gustavo Ferreira – which i believe might be the best way to learn scripting – i haven’t found any more accessible and reliable resources for learning this codecraft.
Are there any publications, websites, video-tutorials, or anything else that would help to learn from scratch and end up at least a moderately high degree of proficiency?

Is Learning Python, 4th Edition good too?I’ve bought already 4th edition and I don’t know if 5th is better for somebody, who want to learn python 2.x.
I heard that this course is very good:

and I started with this course for programming beginners(it is totally free)
another useful website for beginners
