Learning Python: Powerful Object-Oriented Programming (4th Edition)

Google and YouTube use Python simply because it's hugely adaptable, effortless to take care of, and permits swift improvement. to be able to write high quality, effective code that's simply built-in with different languages and instruments, this hands-on ebook may also help you be efficient with Python fast -- no matter if you're new to programming or simply new to Python.

Real Python: An Introduction to Python Through Practical Examples

An ebook to educate programming via hands-on, fascinating examples which are helpful and fun!

Python is a brilliant programming language. It's unfastened, strong, more uncomplicated to learn than such a lot languages, and has extensions to be had to do nearly whatever you'll think automatically.

But how do you certainly use it? There are a whole lot assets in the market for studying Python, yet none of them are very functional or attention-grabbing - as an alternative, they cross over every one proposal one after the other, by no means tying something jointly, yet spending lots of time misplaced in technical language, discussing the twenty other ways to complete every one easy job. ..

I are looking to write an book that at last offers a concise advent to every thing chances are you'll truly are looking to do with Python.

We'll begin with a brief yet thorough evaluate of the entire fundamentals, so that you don't even want any previous event with programming. however the majority of the e-book could be spent increase instance code to unravel attention-grabbing real-world problems.

Python is astounding for automating repetitive initiatives that will differently take you hours - for example, speedy collecting facts from the net, or renaming hundreds and hundreds of records. a number of the subject matters that I'm making plans to cover:

Collecting info from webpages (web scraping)
Interacting with PDF documents - examining facts, growing PDFs, editing pages, including passwords. ..
Interacting with Excel records (less performance in OS X)
Calling different open air courses from inside Python
Files - read/write/modify, unzip, rename, flow, 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 any one can use
Any different issues that you just, my backers, are so much in!
Update: via well known call for, I'll be including net 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 by way of Magnus Lie Hetland, writer of starting Python, this ebook is sharply all in favour of classical algorithms, however it additionally provides a pretty good knowing of primary algorithmic problem-solving thoughts.

The e-book bargains with one of the most very important and hard components of programming and desktop technology, yet in a hugely pedagogic and readable manner.

The e-book covers either algorithmic thought and programming perform, demonstrating how thought is mirrored in genuine Python programs.

Well-known algorithms and information constructions which are outfitted into the Python language are defined, and the consumer is proven find out how to enforce and overview others himself.

Testing Python: Applying Unit Testing, TDD, BDD and Acceptance Testing

Basic checking out methodologies utilized to the preferred Python language

Testing Python; utilising Unit trying out, TDD, BDD and recognition trying out is the main accomplished publication to be had on checking out for one of many most sensible software program programming languages on this planet. Python is a typical selection for brand spanking new and skilled builders, and this hands-on source is a far wanted consultant to enterprise-level trying out improvement methodologies. The booklet will exhibit you why Unit trying out and TDD can result in purifier, extra versatile programs.

Unit trying out and Test-Driven improvement (TDD) are more and more must-have abilities 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 consistently have operating code, and that's what makes trying out methodologies so appealing. This e-book will educate you the main favourite trying out techniques and should introduce to you to nonetheless others, protecting functionality checking out, non-stop checking out, and more.

Learn Unit checking out and TDD—important improvement methodologies that lie on the center of Agile development
Enhance your skill to paintings with Python to boost 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 gang by way of getting to know the underappreciated international of Python testing
Knowledge of software program trying out in Python might set you except Python builders utilizing superseded methodologies. Python is a common healthy for TDD and checking out Python is a must-read textual content for an individual who desires to advance services in Python programming.

Example text

What is assembly language? What type of programming language allows you to create powerful and complex programs without knowing how the CPU works? Each language has a set of rules that must be strictly followed when writing a program. What is this set of rules called? What do you call a program that translates a high-level language program into a separate machine language program? What do you call a program that both translates and executes the instructions in a high-level language program? What type of mistake is usually caused by a misspelled key word, a missing punctuation character, or the incorrect use of an operator?

Some of the more well-known microprocessor companies are Intel, AMD, and Motorola. If you look carefully at your computer, you might find a tag showing a logo for its microprocessor. Each brand of microprocessor has its own unique instruction set, which is typically understood only by microprocessors of the same brand. For example, Intel microprocessors understand the same instructions, but they do not understand instructions for Motorola microprocessors. The machine language instruction that was previously shown is an example of only one instruction.
