online tutorials?

[Gits]

I want to learn how to program in python and would like to know if you
guys know of any free online tutorials. Or is it too complicated to
learn from a site or books?

Start here, perhaps:

As for whether it's too complicated to learn from written materials,
that may depend on how much programming tuition you've had already.
I'd already used quite a few languages before finding Python, so it
may be the case that you are in a different audience than I was, but
the following page may point you towards suitable tutorials:

Good luck!
