Hi, the title says it all. Looking for a quick and dirty python book that will get me up and running as I jumped into PWK without any python experience.

Thanks in advance!

Python Crash Course (No Starch Press) is also good.

If you are a beginner I would suggest RealPython site with many nice guides. To understand Python3 in deep I recommend the book : "Programming in Python 3: A Complete Introduction to the Python Language" - Mark Summerfield. It taught me a lot about Python but I do not recommend this book for beginners but I think this one is the best.

You can check also https://diveintopython3.problemsolving.io/index.html and https://docs.python.org/3/tutorial/ if you have previous programming experience you can use them as reference.

Python docs would be your best starting place, really. It's very well written & a great reference. If you wanted to jump right in with examples to learn from, https://docs.python.org/3/tutorial/index.html .

As far as books on the subject, I recommend Justin Seitz's book: Black Hat Python.

The code in the book is Python 2, but, industrious people have converted the code to pure Python 3, https://github.com/EONRaider/blackhat-python3 .
