Many books and websites have aggressive programming challenges for top coders. However, this book is for the rest of us. We want challenges that improve our coding skills, not leave us confused and discouraged. Other tutorials and books have taught you the basics of Python, but the 42 programming exercises in this book let you practice what you've learned. Selected for their simplicity, these programming problems include gentle explanations of the problem, the prerequisite coding concepts you’ll need to understand the solution, and helpful templates to put together the programs if you have trouble starting from scratch.
Programming is like any other skill: it gets better with practice. I’ve chosen the exercises in this book because they are short and straightforward. Each exercise involves only a handful of programming concepts and you can solve them in a single session at the computer. If you’ve been intimidated by ―competitive programming or ―hacker challenge websites, you’ll find these to be an instructive and gentler way to level up your coding skills.
This is the perfect book for beginner and intermediate programmers who want to test their Python skills but aren’t ready to begin professional-level software development. You don’t need the frustration of being expected to create complex algorithms and computer science theory; you need a large set of programming challenges that meet you at your level, with gentle explanations.
