There are many online resources for learning Python. They are usually organized as step-by-step text or video tutorials. Some of them even offer a browser-based IDE (Integrated Development Environment), basically an editor that allows you to directly execute Python code (like Codecademy). Rhino 5 also comes with Python editor pre-installed.
