Introducing Python: Modern Computing in Simple Packages

Great book, I highly recommend it.

Are you a student getting a degree in software engineering or a person interested in computer science. This is the book for you, it has been amazing for traversing through the first computer course I have entered. Incredibly legible, you don't have to be big brain to create a program. Python is very versatile and is the most common and popular code to create with.

Love it. Ordered another book with this one and returned the other book within two days.Writing style is informative but easy to understand for someone with no programming experience at all (when he tells you to read an appendices, do it).I am using this as a companion to a UdemyCourse to help reinforce concepts for me (the book is not required).I decided to order the Kindle version because other reviews said that the print version was not in color. I felt like that was important since I am a total noob at programming and I wanted it to match what I was seeing in my coding environment.

I need my information delivered- concise,- well orgnized- proper examples and exercisesThe author leaves out any sort of humor, which makes him a better writer.you get one sentence per page, maybe, but I read this as his attempt to convey he is not only a techy but also human.Using it for a course at UC Berkeley. So don't expect a lot of mental downtime.The second edition of a book indicates that people considered it of value.I left out one star:The justification is that if you buy a book from Manning, you get an entire repo plus online content related to each chapter of the book. This is O'Reilly, asking $56 for a programming book and their online content related to this book is rudimentary, at best.

I've purchased a lot of Python books as I learn the language well enough to teach it to a 10 year old. This is my go-to book on almost any Python topic. I'm tired of books written by authors anxious to display their technical chops at the expense of readability, such as showing single-line programming puzzles that wrap a lot of functionality into a single statement. None of that here. Amazingly, it is an enjoyable read while giving clear explanations of Python elements. And considering its scope, it is bargain-priced.

I found this books easy and clear to understand for beginners.1). it give you an on overview of computer programming , specifically about Python.2) On every chapter it points you to other programming concepts, which cover details about higher Python topics.3) It is written in a way that non-programmers or beginners can understand and rapidly absorb the contents of the book.

I would suggest this book for python programming courses.

The book is actually what I was looking for. It the description by the seller was on point. The conditions of the book came as new and in excellent packaging. It took me a while to review this item, but overall it looks like they took good care of it.
