HIGHLIGHT
Updated from the classic original, The Quick Python Book, Second Edition
will help working programmers become proficient in Python, from basics to
advanced functions.
DESCRIPTION
The Quick Python Book, Second Edition, is a clear, concise introduction to Python
3, aimed at programmers new to Python. This updated edition includes all the
changes in Python 3, itself a significant shift from earlier versions of Python.
The book begins with basic but useful programs that teach the core features of
syntax, control flow, and data structures. It then moves to larger applications
involving code management, object-oriented programming, web development,
and converting code from earlier versions of Python.
True to his audience of experienced developers, the author covers common programming
language features concisely, while giving more detail to those features
unique to Python.
KEY POINTS
• Appeals both to Python novices and programmers migrating from earlier
versions who want to quickly grasp the new features of Python 3
• Teaches best practices for objected oriented design and testing
• Demonstrates how to use regular expressions and Java with Python
• Key concepts illustrated with clear, simple examples and annotated code
