- Book 1 of 10: Simple Guides to Programming & Development in an AI-Enabled World
Between dry documentation and tutorials that assume too much (or too little), finding a clear path from zero to confident developer isn't easy. This book changes that.
Written for students, junior software engineers, and keen hobbyists, A Simple Guide to Python takes you from your first installation through to building real projects — including a complete Snake-style game.
Every chapter walks you through practical, hands-on tutorials that build on what came before. You'll write code from day one, see how each concept connects to the next, and finish each chapter with skills you can actually use. Code examples, prompts, and pro tips support every step. No fluff, no jargon overload, just clear, manageable steps that work.
Published by Codapress, this guide teaches Python fundamentals the way development works today. What makes it different is how it prepares you for modern development. Alongside the core syllabus, you'll discover how to use AI coding assistants as a learning accelerator — not a crutch, but a practical tool that helps you write better code, debug with confidence, and deepen your understanding faster. AI guidance doesn't replace the need to learn the basics; it enhances and speeds up the process, giving you a genuine head start in an AI-enabled world.
Across 14 chapters and 5 parts, you will learn how to:- Install Python safely, run your first scripts, and build confident programming habits from the start
- Store, manipulate, and convert data using Python's core types and built-in data structures
- Control program flow with conditions and loops that make your code smarter and more efficient
- Write reusable functions and handle files safely for real-world automation tasks
- Debug errors methodically using tracebacks, exception handling, and step-by-step techniques
- Extend Python with modules, libraries, packages, and simple object-oriented design
- Apply everything you've learned in practical projects, then build a complete terminal-based Snake-style game
This isn't about letting AI write your code for you. It's about learning Python properly while discovering how to think and work alongside intelligent tools. By the end of this book, you won't just know Python syntax — you'll understand how to apply it, debug it, and extend it with confidence. If you're ready to go from Python novice to someone who can build real projects, solve real problems, and keep growing, start here.

We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
