Well planned python programming book for beginners to be a fluent python programmer。Thanks， Dr。 Chuck for lots of free materials and awesome content。

This review has been hidden because it contains spoilers。 To view it， click here。 The book was really easy to follow and gave examples that I could copy into a script and run。 The topics were presented really clearly and I really enjoyed working on the end of chapter exercises。

I picked this book because it was far cheaper than any alternative。 I learned a lot， though I stopped half-way through because the focus， data mining， was not my interest。 For the early chapters， and ideas， this was fine。 "Dr。 Chuck" as he calls himself presented the information well and enjoyably。 There were homework problems too， and programs at an appropriate level with enough frustration but not too much， so I did the problems （this is important， otherwise you don't learn the subject）。 It he I picked this book because it was far cheaper than any alternative。 I learned a lot， though I stopped half-way through because the focus， data mining， was not my interest。 For the early chapters， and ideas， this was fine。 "Dr。 Chuck" as he calls himself presented the information well and enjoyably。 There were homework problems too， and programs at an appropriate level with enough frustration but not too much， so I did the problems （this is important， otherwise you don't learn the subject）。 It helped a lot that I read it along with the video-course presentation in Coursera （also low-cost）。 The problem， for me was the focus on data mining and analysis。 I want to use Python for science and engineering， and there was little or nothing here to help。 I could figure out some basics， but knew that I will likely want to use one of the packages， numpy， or something like it， and there was nowhere near enough in that direction， even as an appendix or side-bar。 。。。more

Excellent book for a beginner with no programming experience at all。 There is the companion web-site and 13hrs Youtube video。

I read the python2 version of the book in 2013 and it was incredible when I started learning Python。 The python3 version is nonetheless amazing for all sorts of people if they are starting to learn Python or programming in general。

Tough Book on KindleI had difficulties trying to follow along on the Kindle and using my laptop。 The words were too small for me and I had to squint。 Maybe if I had bought this in hard copy it would have gone better。 It seemed to me this book is more intermediate than beginner。

کتاب اطلاعات مفید خوبی برای شروع داره。 خیلی از مفاهیم ابتدایی پایتون رو کوتاه توضیح داده و مثال زده。 من به عنوان مرور، کنار دوره ای که می دیدم از این کتاب استفاده میکردم که خب بد نبود。 تهش هم یه سری زده به جاده خاکی و اومده پروژه هایی که شاید تو حوزه وب کاربرد داشته باشن رو توضیح داده که کاربردی واسه من نداشت اما شاید در آینده بهش برگردم。

Excellent book。 I read the book while taking the related online classes。 The book provide a good review of the basics。 I was a little disappointed in the level of detail that JSON and SQLite was covered but it was sufficient to get me started。

Excellent book that taught me the essentials of Python and back-end programming。 A long way to go before I have mastery of the language， but this was a great starter book。

I just finished reading the book。 A good practical introduction to Python & great companion and resource for the Coursera Python courses （1+2+3+4+5）。 The author and instructor is a master， making it easy to learn basic programming principles and Python。

Great！Together with p4e website and Coursera lectures taught me a lot of Python。 I started as a complete noob and finished with a working program that created a nice visualization for my needs。

This is a great book for absolute beginners in programming。 Concepts are explained in very easy terms， and there are some simple exercises that can be done for comprehension。 I used this book as a companion for the 'Python for Everybody' specialization in Coursera。 Do note， however， that the book is extremely light on Computer Science and many times touches things with quite a bit of superficiality。 Anybody who's programmed a bit will find this well structured by lacking depth。 This is a great book for absolute beginners in programming。 Concepts are explained in very easy terms， and there are some simple exercises that can be done for comprehension。 I used this book as a companion for the 'Python for Everybody' specialization in Coursera。 Do note， however， that the book is extremely light on Computer Science and many times touches things with quite a bit of superficiality。 Anybody who's programmed a bit will find this well structured by lacking depth。 。。。more

My favorite book to learn PythonThe author uses simple， but very powerful examples to teach you how to program applications for your normal activities。 This book uses Python 3。You will enjoy learning how to program。

Dr。 Severance （aka dr chuck） has made a tremendous contribution to the software engineering （geek:>）） community！The quality of his material （book and lectures） is outstanding: stimulating， didactical， entertaining and relevant。His book and classes are available free！ It does not get any better than that！

A very good book and set of videos either through Coursera or the author’s own site at py4e。com， where you can do the exercises without paying Coursera。 Explains the basics and concepts well， but falls short in prompting with good practice projects， which you can often solve by modifying the code discussed in the chapter rather than having to apply it in a novel way， which I think would help more with learning。That said， I used this with another source that was more “sink or swim，” and the grasp A very good book and set of videos either through Coursera or the author’s own site at py4e。com， where you can do the exercises without paying Coursera。 Explains the basics and concepts well， but falls short in prompting with good practice projects， which you can often solve by modifying the code discussed in the chapter rather than having to apply it in a novel way， which I think would help more with learning。That said， I used this with another source that was more “sink or swim，” and the grasp of the fundamentals I got from Dr。 Chuck in this book and course was essential for actually using programming to solve other problems。 。。。more

Good base， but then moves fastWish I would have programmed along。 But overall was happy with the basic understanding of the interplay between data and programming described here。 I need a case to work on and then I will be ready to dig in。

This book is very very good for python beginners， especially programming newcomers。 It explains the programming concepts in a very illustrative way。 I highly recommend it。

One of the best intro/intermediate books on python and programming I've read。 This book does it all。 I also took the companion series of courses through Coursera that covers the chapters section by section。 Between the book and the course， it really speaks plainly to you about programming and solving particular problems。 One of the best intro/intermediate books on python and programming I've read。 This book does it all。 I also took the companion series of courses through Coursera that covers the chapters section by section。 Between the book and the course， it really speaks plainly to you about programming and solving particular problems。 。。。more

Amazing！ I wish I read this 4 years ago and saved myself some lessons learned the hard way。 Brilliantly written and beginner friendly without sacrificing depth and quality。 Anyone who wants to learn Python beyond being a script kiddie can benefit from this resource。

Great for fundamentals。 Shaky as soon as it dives networks， regular expressions， databases and OOP。

Mooie aanvulling op de Datacamp Python for Data Science。 Duidelijk gestructureerd boek。 Ik heb vooral veel gehad aan hoofdstuk Reguliere Expressies， Scrapen， webservices en Databases+SQL gebruiken。Nu zijn "moderne" woorden duidelijk geworden zoals web scraping :-）Enkele extra moeilijkheden: oefeningen in het boek op HTTP maar nu meestal HTTPS。 Mooie aanvulling op de Datacamp Python for Data Science。 Duidelijk gestructureerd boek。 Ik heb vooral veel gehad aan hoofdstuk Reguliere Expressies， Scrapen， webservices en Databases+SQL gebruiken。Nu zijn "moderne" woorden duidelijk geworden zoals web scraping :-）Enkele extra moeilijkheden: oefeningen in het boek op HTTP maar nu meestal HTTPS。 。。。more

Nice introduction to PythonI appreciated the section on databases in particular。 I would definitely have this as a supplement to other Python texts。
