About the Book
It's very thorough, written with care, and presented in a way that makes sense. Even as an intermediate Python programmer, I found use in this book. — feedback by Andrew Healey on an early draft mentioned in this Hacker News thread
This book is a short, introductory guide for the Python programming language. This book is well suited:
- As a reference material for Python beginner workshops
- If you have prior experience with another programming language
- If you want a complement resource after reading a Python basics book, watching a video course, etc
Prerequisites: You should be already familiar with basic programming concepts. If you are new to programming, see my curated list of resources (https://learnbyexample.github.io/py_resources/) instead.
Exercises are included to test your understanding. Visit https://github.com/learnbyexample/100_page_python_intro for program files, markdown source and other details about the book.
About the Author
Sundeep Agarwal is a lazy being who prefers to work just enough to support his modest lifestyle. He accumulated vast wealth working as a Design Engineer at Analog Devices and retired from the corporate world at the ripe age of twenty-eight. Unfortunately, he squandered his savings within a few years and had to scramble trying to earn a living. Against all odds, selling programming ebooks saved his lazy self from having to look for a job again. He can now afford all the fantasy ebooks he wants to read and spends unhealthy amount of time browsing the internet.
When the creative muse strikes, he can be found working on yet another programming ebook (which invariably ends up having at least one example with regular expressions). Researching materials for his ebooks and everyday social media usage drowned his bookmarks, so he maintains curated resource lists for sanity sake. He is thankful for free learning resources and open source tools. His own contributions can be found at https://github.com/learnbyexample.
