Description
Most Programmer’s learning Python are usually comfortable with some or the other programming language and are not interested in going through the typical learning curve of learning the first programming language. Instead, they are looking for something that can get them off the ground quickly. They are looking for similarities and differences in a feature that they have used in other language(s) plus what extra does the new language offer. This book should help them immensely. It guides you from the fundamentals of using module through the advanced object orientation, concurrence and synchronization.
What you will learn
● Data types, Control flow instructions, Console & File Input/Output.
● Strings, List & Tuples, Comprehension.
● Sets, Dictionaries, Functions & Recursion.
● Map, Filter, Reduce, Namespaces, Modules & Packages, Classes and Objects.
Who this book is for
Students, Programmers, researchers, and software developers who wish to learn the basics of Python programming language.
