Create simple, easy programs in the popular Python language.
Beginning Programming with Python For Dummies is the trusted way to learn the foundations of programming using the Python programming language. Python is one of the top-ranked languages, and there’s no better way to get started in computer programming than this friendly guide. You’ll learn the basics of coding and the process of creating simple, fun programs right away. This updated edition features new chapters, including coverage of Google Colab, plus expanded information on functions and objects, and new examples and graphics that are relevant to today’s beginning coders. Dummies helps you discover the wealth of things you can achieve with Python.
Python is an example of a language that does everything right within the domain of things that it’s designed to do. This isn’t just me saying it, either: Programmers have voted by using Python enough that it’s now the first-ranked language in the world. The amazing thing about Python is that you really can write an application on one platform and use it on every other platform that you need to support. In contrast to other programming languages that promised to provide platform independence, Python really does make that independence possible. In this case, the promise is as good as the result you get.
Python emphasizes code readability and a concise syntax that lets you write applications using fewer lines of code than other programming languages require. You can also use a coding style that meets your needs, given that Python supports the functional, imperative, object-oriented, and procedural coding styles (see Chapter 3 for details). In addition, because of the way Python works, you find it used in all sorts of fields that are filled with nonprogrammers. Beginning Programming with Python For Dummies, 3rd Edition is designed to help everyone, including nonprogrammers, get up and running with Python quickly.
Some people view Python as a scripted language, but it really is so much more. (Chapter 19 gives you just an inkling of the occupations that rely on Python to make things work.) However, Python does lend itself to educational and other uses for which other programming languages can fall short. In fact, this book uses both Google Colab and Jupyter Notebook for examples, which rely on the highly readable literate programming paradigm advanced by Stanford computer scientist Donald Knuth (see Chapter 4 for details). Your examples end up looking like highly readable reports that almost anyone can understand with ease.
Employ an online coding environment to avoid installation woes and code anywhere, any time Learn the basics of programming using the popular Python language Create easy, fun projects to show off your new coding chops Fix errors in your code and use Python with external data sets
Beginning Programming with Python For Dummies will get new programmers started—the easy way.
