I have been wanted to practice and relearn python and I recently, during my annual month-long summer break from work, had a chance to revisit python. I’d like to share the great free resource I’ve found online. The resources include CodeCademy, Aptana, and free Python3 book.
I took a simple course on CodeCademy (http://www.codecademy.com/), an exciting start-up company. It offers free online, step-by-step, programming courses ranging from HTMP, JavaScript, to Python. I find CodeCademy’s interface really easy to use and quite addicting, if you are the kind of person who enjoys coding.
For IDE (Integrated Development Environment), I use Aptana 
. Aptana is web development IDE based on Eclipse. If you are familiar with Eclipse, Aptana is fairly easy to use.
Luckily I also found free books (Dive Into Python3) that are easy to follow

Haven’t used Aptana before. Will definetly give it a try.
