Learning Python: Powerful Object-Oriented Programming (4th Edition)
Google and YouTube use Python simply because it's hugely adaptable, effortless to keep up, and allows fast improvement. so that it will write high quality, effective code that's simply built-in with different languages and instruments, this hands-on ebook may help you be effective with Python quick -- even if you're new to programming or simply new to Python.
Real Python: An Introduction to Python Through Practical Examples
An booklet to coach programming via hands-on, attention-grabbing examples which are helpful and fun!
Python is a brilliant programming language. It's loose, strong, more straightforward to learn than such a lot languages, and has extensions on hand to do virtually whatever you'll think automatically.
But how do you certainly use it? There are lots of assets available in the market for studying Python, yet none of them are very sensible or fascinating - as an alternative, they cross over each one suggestion one after the other, by no means tying whatever jointly, yet spending lots of time misplaced in technical language, discussing the twenty other ways to complete each one easy activity. ..
I are looking to write an publication that at last provides a concise advent to every little thing you may truly are looking to do with Python.
We'll commence with a brief yet thorough evaluation of all of the fundamentals, so that you don't even desire any earlier adventure with programming. however the majority of the publication may be spent increase instance code to unravel attention-grabbing real-world problems.
Python is amazing for automating repetitive projects that will differently take you hours - for example, speedy amassing info from the net, or renaming hundreds of thousands of records. a few of the issues that I'm making plans to cover:
Collecting info from webpages (web scraping)
Interacting with PDF documents - interpreting info, developing PDFs, editing pages, including passwords. ..
Interacting with Excel records (less performance in OS X)
Calling different outdoor courses from inside of Python
Files - read/write/modify, unzip, rename, stream, etc.
Basic online game development
Interacting with SQL databases (internal and ODBC connections)
GUI (Graphical person Interface) layout - growing basic point-and-click courses that anybody can use
Any different themes that you just, my backers, are so much in!
Update: via renowned call for, I'll be including internet program development

Python Algorithms: Mastering Basic Algorithms in the Python Language
Python Algorithms explains the Python method of set of rules research and layout.
Written through Magnus Lie Hetland, writer of starting Python, this publication is sharply curious about classical algorithms, however it additionally supplies a high-quality knowing of basic algorithmic problem-solving strategies.
The e-book bargains with one of the most vital and tough parts of programming and laptop technology, yet in a hugely pedagogic and readable manner.
The e-book covers either algorithmic concept and programming perform, demonstrating how thought is mirrored in genuine Python programs.
Well-known algorithms and information buildings which are equipped into the Python language are defined, and the consumer is proven tips on how to enforce and assessment others himself.
Testing Python: Applying Unit Testing, TDD, BDD and Acceptance Testing
Basic checking out methodologies utilized to the preferred Python language
Testing Python; using Unit checking out, TDD, BDD and reputation trying out is the main entire e-book on hand on trying out for one of many best software program programming languages on the planet. Python is a ordinary selection for brand new and skilled builders, and this hands-on source is a far wanted consultant to enterprise-level checking out improvement methodologies. The e-book will convey you why Unit trying out and TDD can result in cleanser, extra versatile programs.
Unit checking out and Test-Driven improvement (TDD) are more and more must-have talents for software program builders, it doesn't matter what language they paintings in. In company settings, it's serious for builders to make sure they continuously have operating code, and that's what makes checking out methodologies so beautiful. This publication will educate you the main wide-spread checking out recommendations and may introduce to you to nonetheless others, overlaying functionality checking out, non-stop trying out, and more.
Learn Unit trying out and TDD—important improvement methodologies that lie on the middle of Agile development
Enhance your skill to paintings with Python to increase robust, versatile purposes with fresh code
Draw at the services of writer David Sale, a number one united kingdom developer and tech commentator
Get sooner than the group by means of getting to know the underappreciated international of Python testing
Knowledge of software program trying out in Python may set you except Python builders utilizing outdated methodologies. Python is a traditional healthy for TDD and trying out Python is a must-read textual content for a person who desires to increase services in Python programming.

Example text
N --noncritical tag Tests having this tag are overridden to be of non-critical type. -v --variable name:value Set variables in tests, only scalar variables(${}) are supported. -V --variablefile path Specify explicitly the file that contains variables. -d --output dir Specify the desired directory where resultant files are placed. -o --output file The generated XML output file. -l --log file The generated HTML log file. -r --report file The generated HTML log file. -x --xunit file xUnit compatible result file (not created by default).
Note Note that variable names are case-sensitive. In order to differentiate between variables and other keywords, keep in mind that generally the variables are kept in uppercase but there is no such rule. The variables are defined as ${Variable Name} for normal, single-valued variables and as @{Variable Name} for a variable containing a list of different values. In a test configuration file, when only the variable table is specified, then the test file becomes a variable file and on its usage, only the table starting with variables will be considered.
The test configuration is written in a tabular format with each column having separate elements such as test element. The Robot Framework allows flexibility in specifying the separations among the different columns in a test file as well as supporting different formats for the test files, which you can choose at your discretion. Note that depending upon the file extension; a suitable parser is selected during runtime. Some of the supported formats are as follows: HTMLTSVPlaintextPiped textRestructuredText HTML format In an HTML format, the HTML is read, which comprises of different tables for different portions of the test configuration.
