Dive Into Python
Book Description
Dive Into Python is a Python book for experienced programmers. Whether you’re an experienced programmer looking to get into Python or grizzled Python veteran who remembers the days when you had to import the string module, Dive Into Python is your ‘desert island’ Python book. If you’ve never programmed before, Python is an excellent language to learn modern programming techniques. But this book should not be your starting point. Get “How to Think Like a Computer Scientist: Learning with Python” by Allen Downey, Jeffrey Elkner, Chris Meyers and learn the basics. Then dive into this book. Dive Into PYTHON was written by Mark Pilgram and is distributed under the GNU Free Documentation License. * Money raised from the sale of this book supports the development of free software and documentation.
Python is a new and innovative scripting language. It is set to replace Perl as the programming language of choice for shell scripters, and for serious application developers who want a feature-rich, yet simple language to deploy their products.
Dive Into Python is a hands-on guide to the Python language. Each chapter starts with a real, complete code sample, proceeds to pick it apart and explain the pieces, and then puts it all back together in a summary at the end.
This is the perfect resource for you if you like to jump into languages fast and get going right away.
