Learn to code like a professional with Python – an open source, versatile, and powerful programming language About This Book Learn the fundamentals of programming with Python – one of the best languages ever created Develop a strong set of programming skills that you will be able to express in any situation, on every platform, thanks to Python’s portability Create outstanding applications of all kind, from websites to scripting, and from GUIs to data science Who This Book Is For Python is the most popular introductory teaching language in U.S. top computer science universities, so if you are new to software development, or maybe you have little experience, and would like to start off on the right foot, then this language and this book are what you need. Its amazing design and portability will help you become productive regardless of the environment you choose to work with. What You Will Learn Get Python up and running on Windows, Mac, and Linux in no time Grasp the fundamental concepts of coding, along with the basics of data structures and control flow. Write elegant, reusable, and efficient code in any situation Understand when to use the functional or the object oriented programming approach Create bulletproof, reliable software by writing tests to support your code Explore examples of GUIs, scripting, data science and web applications Learn to be independent, capable of fetching any resource you need, as well as dig deeper In Detail Learning Python has a dynamic and varied nature. It reads easily and lays a good foundation for those who are interested in digging deeper. It has a practical and example-oriented approach through which both the introductory and the advanced topics are explained. Starting with the fundamentals of programming and Python, it ends by exploring very different topics, like GUIs, web apps and data science. The book takes you all the way to creating a fully fledged application. The book begins by exploring the essentials of programming, data structures and teaches you how to manipulate them. It then moves on to controlling the flow of a program and writing reusable and error proof code. You will then explore different programming paradigms that will allow you to find the best approach to any situation, and also learn how to perform performance optimization as well as effective debugging. Throughout, the book steers you through the various types of applications, and it concludes with a complete mini website built upon ...

Who is using Python today? Setting up the environment Python 2 versus Python 3 - the great debate Installing Python Setting up the Python interpreter About virtualenv Your first virtual environmentYour friend, the console How you can run a Python program Running Python scripts Running the Python interactive shell Running Python as a service Running Python as a GUI application How is Python code organized How do we use modules and packages Python's execution model Names and namespaces Scopes Object and classes Guidelines on how to write good code The Python culture A note on the IDEs Summary Chapter 2: Built-in Data Types Everything is an object Mutable or immutable? That is the question Numbers Integers Booleans Reals Complex numbers Fractions and decimalsImmutable sequences Strings and bytes Encoding and decoding strings Indexing and slicing strings Tuples Mutable sequences Lists Byte arrays Set types Mapping types - dictionaries The collections module Named tuples Defaultdict ChainMap Final considerations Small values caching How to choose data structures About indexing and slicing About the names Chapter 3: Iterating and Making Decisions Conditional programming A specialized else: elif The ternary operator Looping The for loop Iterating over a range Iterating over a sequence Iterators and iterablesIterating over multiple sequences The while loop The break and continue statements A special else clause Putting this all together Example 1 - a prime generator Example 2 - applying discounts A quick peek at the itertools module Infinite iterators Iterators terminating on the shortest input sequence Combinatoric generators Chapter 4: Functions, the Building Blocks of Code Why use functions? Reduce code duplication Splitting a complex task Hide implementation details Improve readability Improve traceability Scopes and name resolution The global and nonlocal statementsInput parameters Argument passing Assignment to argument names don't affect the caller Changing a mutable affects the caller How to specify input parameters Positional arguments Keyword arguments and default values Variable positional arguments Variable keyword arguments Keyword-only arguments Combining input parameters Avoid the trap! Mutable defaults Return values Returning multiple values A few useful tips Recursive functions Anonymous functions Function attributes Built-in functions One final example Documenting your code Importing objects |
