I do not agree with this approach at all. Diving into existing applications when you are just learning to develop can be very overwhelming and is not the best way to learn.
Python is a great language to start with. Start with tutorials and learn the basics of programming. Just learning the simple basics can take quite some time. Once you start feeling comfortable with the basics (variables, functions, classes, etc.) then you can start looking at creating a bigger application that actually does something. Pick something like a calendar application, or a simple card game. At this point you probably will not know everything you need to know to create an application like this, but you can research and learn the things you need to as you go.
As you are learning I would recommend for signing up on a programming specific forum where you can ask questions and get help.
