Book Description
Learn Python Programming creates a foundation for those who are interested in developing their skills in Python programming. The book starts with the fundamentals of programming with Python and ends by exploring different topics such as GUIs and real-world apps.
You will begin by exploring the foundations of and fundamental topics on Python and learn to manipulate them. Then,you’ll explore different programming paradigms that will allow you to find the best approach to a situation,and you’ll also understand how to carry out performance optimization as well as effective debugging.
As you make your way through the chapters,you’ll control the flow of a program,and persist and utilize an interchange format to exchange data. You’ll also walk through cryptographic services in Python and understand secure tokens. Throughout,the book covers various types of applications,and it concludes with building real-world applications based on all the concepts that you learned.
By the end of the book,you’ll have a proper understanding of the Python language and a solid grasp on how to work with data. You’ll know how to quickly build a website and harness the power of Python’s renowned data science libraries.
