Synopsis:
A project-based approach to learning Python programming for beginners. Intriguing projects teach you how to tackle challenging problems with code. <p/>You've mastered the basics. Now you're ready to explore some of Python's more powerful tools. Real-World Python will show you how. <p/>Through a series of hands-on projects, you'll investigate real-world problems and determine the best programming strategies to solve them. You'll be introduced to important modules like OpenCV, NumPy, Pandas, NLTK, Bokeh, Beautiful Soup, Requests, HoloViews, Tkinter, turtle, and matplotlib, and learn to harness powerful Python tools like computer vision, data analysis, and language processing. You'll learn to create complex, professional-grade programs and think through intriguing projects that show you how to: <p/> - Save shipwrecked sailors with an algorithm designed to prove the existence of God
- Detect asteroids and comets moving against a starfield
- Program a robot sentry gun to shoot monsters and spare humans
- Select landing sites for a Mars probe using real NASA maps
- Send unbreakable messages written in a book code
- Escape the walking dead using data science
- Discover exoplanets and alien megastructures orbiting distant stars
- Test the hypothesis that we're all living in a computer simulation
- And more! <p/>If you're tired of learning the bare essentials of Python Programming with examples taken out of context, you'll relish the relevant and geeky fun of Real-World Python!
