I cannot recommend Beyond the Basic Stuff with Python enough for every person who wants to learn fundamentals surrounding coding and specifically coding in python." —Ian Mizer, Atlanta Python Programmers Group 'A Great New Book' "A great new book... Sweigart focuses on three major subjects: common difficulties in getting started (seeking help, setting up a work environment); best practices, tools, and techniques; and using object-oriented Python...
