Greetings
There are mountains of books out there.
Any suggestions for documents for a just learning how to program and
starting with Python (3)?

  Check out these resources:

"Object-Oriented Programming in Python Documentation" - a PDF file,
Introduction to Programming Using Python - Y Daniel Liang (2013),
How to Think Like a Computer Scientist - Peter Wentworth (2012-08-12),
The Coder's Apprentice - Pieter Spronck (2016-09-21), and
Python Programming - John Zelle (2009).

  And I should not forget to mention the resources from
  Python org:

Python Tutorial
The Python Library Reference
The Python Language Reference
(and more ...)

  which I prefer to download as PDF files and then modify my
  local environment so that I can open each of them with just
  two or three keystrokes. (Some advanced learners who already
  know other languages might prefer these references to books.)

Preference to a tool where I would be learning by doing - - - that
works well for me.

  In this case, you should select sources by whether they include
  exercises.
