This book is a comprehensive guide designed to teach the fundamentals of Python programming while introducing the exciting possibilities of Generative AI. Whether you’re a novice or a developer looking to integrate Grok into your workflow, this book offers a clear, step-by-step path to mastering Python and leveraging AI-driven code generation.
The first three chapters provide an introduction to fundamental aspects of Python programming, which include various data types, number formatting, Unicode and UTF-8 handling, and text manipulation techniques. In addition, you will learn about loops, conditional logic, and reserved words in Python. You will also see how to manage user input, manage exceptions, and work with command-line arguments.
The fourth chapter contains an introduction to NumPy and Pandas, both of which are extremely useful open-source Python libraries. This chapter also contains several Grok-generated Python code samples.
The fifth chapter transitions to the realm of Generative AI, discussing its distinction from Conversational AI. Popular platforms and models, including Grok and its competitors, are presented to give readers an understanding of the current AI landscape. The final chapter is devoted to Python code samples generated by Grok that solve various programming tasks.
In essence, this book provides a modest bridge between the worlds of Python programming and AI, aiming to equip readers with the knowledge and skills to navigate both domains confidently.
The target audience:
This book is intended primarily for people who want to learn both Python and how to use Grok with Python. This book is also intended to reach an international audience of readers with highly diverse backgrounds in various age groups. In addition, this book uses standard English rather than colloquial expressions that might be confusing to those readers. This book provide a comfortable and meaningful learning experience for the intended readers.
Although this book is introductory in nature, some knowledge of Python 3.x with certainly be helpful for the code samples. Knowledge of other programming languages (such as Java) can also be helpful because of the exposure to programming concepts and constructs. The less technical knowledge that you have, the more diligence will be required in order to understand the various topics that are covered. If you want to be sure that you can grasp the material in this book, glance through some of the code samples to get an idea of how much is familiar to you and how much is new for you.
