About this title

Synopsis:

This book is the chess grandmaster way of learning Python. It offers you 127 unique and brand-new Python puzzles. Every puzzle points to gaps in your knowledge, challenges you to guess a solution, and then explains potential solutions, in an easy-to-understand manner:

~~~

# Here’s one example puzzle:

my_list = [1, 1, 1, 1]

my_list[1::2] = [2, 3]

print(my_list)

# What’s the output of this code snippet?

~~~

An easy, fun, and effective way of learning Python -- day after day -- in your COFFEE BREAK PYTHON!

Here's what research says about puzzle-based learning:

"Students who were quizzed after studying a short text could recall significantly more information than students who were asked to reread it"

-- Karpicke, 2007, Elsevier Journal of Memory and Language

Practice testing is scientifically proven to generate up to 44% better learning retention and efficiency.

Simply put: quizzes and puzzles work! More than 100,000 Finxters and thousands of "Coffee Break Python" book customers have already successfully improved their skills with code puzzles.

Learning does not happen in a linear and orderly manner. It's a probabilistic, chaotic, and iterative process of creating knowledge gaps in your brain -- and filling them with just the right information you need.

That's the premise of the "Coffee Break Python" textbook series.
