Welcome to Python 101 ! I wrote this book to help you learn Python 3. It is not meant to be an exhaustive reference book. Instead, the object is to get you acquainted with the building blocks of Python so that you can actually write something useful yourself. A lot of programming textbooks only teach you the language, but do not go much beyond that. I will endeavour to not only get you up to speed on the basics, but also to show you how to create useful programs. Now you may be wondering why just learning the basics isn’t enough. In my experience, when I get finished reading an introductory text, I want to then create something, but I don’t know how ! I’ve got the learning, but not the glue to get from point A to point B. I think it’s important to not only teach you the basics, but also cover intermediate material. Thus, this book will be split into five parts:
Part one will cover Python’s basics.
Part two will be on a small subset of Python’s Standard Library.
Part three will be intermediate material.
Part four will be a series of small tutorials.
Part five will cover Python packaging and distribution.
In part one, we will cover the following:
Python types (strings, lists, dicts, etc).
Conditional statements.
Loops.
List and dictionary comprehensions.
Exception Handling.
File I/O.
Functions and Classes.
Part two will talk about some of Python’s standard library. The standard library is what comes prepackaged with Python. It is made up of modules that you can import to get added functionality. Part three will cover intermediate odds and ends. These are topics that are handy to know, but not necessarily required to be able to program in Python. The topics covered are:
the Python debugger (pdb).
decorators.
the lambda function.
code profiling.
a testing introduction.
Part four will be made up of small tutorials that will help you to learn how to use Python in a practical way. In this way, you will learn how to create Python programs that can actually do something useful ! You can take the knowledge in these tutorials to create your own scripts. Part five is going to cover how to take your code and give it to your friends, family and the world !
