[Bioclusters] education II

[Daniel Comesana]

To extend the AdamM's answer, I want to put on the table the Python
language.
To start from zero, maybe a better and more structured "script option" than
Perl (however Perl is widely used, since it was used for a lot of years),
but, since my formation was in computing (assembler / Pascal) , Python seems
to me more structured and easy to learn.

I used Python, even under Windows plataform with zero changes to run under
Linux.
You have a nice on line support on http://www.python.org/
It also have runtimes for Solaris and Irix.

Best wishes
Daniel
