So were exactly should I start with Python.
I'd prefer a good read, as I enjoy reading.
I personally started with this Ebook:
http://www.ibiblio.org/g2swap/byteofpyth...on_120.pdf

I found this very useful. Also a hint to make sure you learned everything, after you have learnt something new, think of a new program you can create and try creating it. That will ensure you know what you just learned.
Byte of python is a great e-book. I also like this one : http://www.free-itebooks.com/free-ebooks...on-pdf.php

I'd rather not learn any programming language from Youtube.
Text tutorials are better.

Here's a python tutorial that I found with a quick google search: http://docs.python.org/tutorial/

Vouch for thenewboston hes easy to follow and understand in his videos.
Newboston is really good. I've watched some of his video and i can say it was easy to follow.
I have not learned Python myself. But I have friends who say its a great language to start with. I learned C++ first. Then PHP. Then VB. Now I'm learning good old Ruby Smile
Make sure you download an IDE first.

I reccomend Eclipse with the Python plugin, so you can do Java and Python.
