Hi, Deb. Ten years ago (or eleven?), I was completely new to Python. I could not begin to understand over 90 percent of what I was reading here in comp.lang.python.

I really appreciate that the people on this list are so friendly and willing to help. Asking newbie questions isn't going to get you flamed here, we're pretty friendly :) Anyway, we're all newbies in whatever areas we haven't actually dug into. (I denewbified myself in Flask just last week, and there's plenty more of Python that I've never touched.) So go for it, ask those questions! Reveal your ignorance. Let us reveal ours, as we make errors in responses. And by the end of the thread, all the errors will have been corrected and the ignorance cured... and we'll all have learned. That, in my books, is a recipe for an awesome thread. Bring it on! ChrisA -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
is there a list/group for beginners?
Hello. I am a total python newbie and would like to ask questions but all my questions seem so stinkin' elementary compared to the posts I've read so far. Is there a beginning python list anywhere? I have searched and searched. Meanwhile I will continue to read the messages here to cram as much info into my brain as possible.Thanks in advance,Deb in WA, USA -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

There does happen to be a python-tutor list (as Mark mentioned), but as a general rule, it's not a problem to have a mixture of levels of question on the same list. Don't be afraid to ask basic questions while people are asking more complicated ones; this is one of the beauties of mailing lists and newsgroups, the separation of threads.
