Description
Youre already a smart person, you dont need a 1000+ page book to get you started on the webs fastest growing programming platform. Instead, Learn Python in One Hour delivers on the promise of code literacy while saving your most precious commodity time itself. Volkmans innovative programming-by-example approach means you focus on usage, not mindless detail. Based on the authors sold-out live seminars, youll see Pythons flexible coding technique in action as we refactor from script to procedural to object-oriented during actual problem solving.
In a twelve-lesson progression, youll be exposed to this and more:
Basic file input and output operations, incuding exceptions
Using functions to compute and return multiple values
Basic elements of a class definition and how to call methods
Lists, dictionaries, sets, and other collections
Iteration through collections, files, sorted sets
Searching strings with regular expressions (regex)
Client and server programs for REST methods
Using threads in Python for multiple tasks
CGI-BIN programming for simple HTML Forms processing
Six most common Python pitfalls
Take the One Hour challenge and see if you too can pick up 90% of syntax and semantics in less time than you probably spend commuting each day.
