My suggestion as well. Langtangen's other book "A Primer on Scientific
Programming with Python" is a great intro as well, a better starting
point. I'd love to see a merger between Software Carpentry and
Langtangen's books. The ideas behind software carpentry are really
worth to be absorbed, regardless of programming language.
