i'm sorry but i don't understand what do you ask.

learn basic things first and take it step by step, you can't jump to this if you don't understand the rest and is no magic way, only work.

check to see what version of python do you run first then go to the tutorial for your version( there are differences between version).

http://www.python.org/doc/versions/

write and run the examples, write your own code based on what you learn, post specific question here when you have problems.
