Title: great book, the CD is out-of-date
Review: Awesome book, I liked Chapter 3 which instantly gets you into useful programming stuff. The book also takes you from beginner-level to advanced stuff like extending and embedding python, sort of the python equivalent of the Perl camel book (programming perl) and panther book (advanced perl programming) rolled into one. I think there's enough stuff on net programming to justify the title. The CD-ROM in my copy of the book has python 1.3, the current version is 1.5 something. The book too might be dated, but I skimmed the latest ORA python book, Learning Python, and I think this is more my speed.
Is the review positive or negative?
