sample examples of codes written in python

Question

I am wondering if you can help to get plenty of examples of codes written in ArcPY (ArcGIS 10.0 version) including actual data. That will help to see how each code behaves to each example, and then, would be useful to accelerate the learning curve of python in ArcGIS 10.0. ESRI arcpy site package does not have much information on example datasets. Although they try to do their best, they have not incorporated any sample data. Sample data would help to quickly check the code, and , subsequently customize for your own datasets.

I would appreciate for your help on any website links, books, or any other journal articles etc. Please note that I am looking Python sample codes written for ArcGIS10.0 or higher version.

Thanks

If you want ArcGIS specifics then this free course is fairly thorough I hear. I haven't actually gone through all the materials myself, but what I did see seemed like a good base to start with.

Assuming you know "general python coding" (loops, if/then, while, etc.) you can easily put together a meaningful script.

Just in case you don't, this site is pretty good:
