Go from codfish to codmaster
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 30 May 2022Just finished the first chapter this book and it is the best book I have ever seen written about coding. I have no coding experience and so far everytime I try and getting into any coding language, almost every single book I have picked up or bought has left me feeling cold and a little bit dissapointed.
This book explaines everything using real world analogies, does not use very flowery langauge that makes you feel like a chimpanzee after reading it. I feel like I learned a more in the first chaper of this book then I ever have in the first year and half trying to look at python. It just felt like trying to get into an elite club.

A good book to learn from
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 5 November 2019I found this book very good for my limited knowledge of Python.
It explains things in a way that I found easy to understand.
The author knows how to present the information to learners of the language.

A great introduction to Python
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 22 February 2024I liked the layout with the chapters, and I enjoyed the author's YouTube videos to accompany the text. He has a way of building confidence with the topic. The knowledge I gained from this book helped me gain great marks for my MSc.

Best investment
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 14 February 2020Excellent book coupled with the video lectures available on prime - best way to learn through doing.
Only niggle: was that done exercises didn’t coincide with video lectures and vice versatility and there was no single point to see answers in the book but you can find some of the answers on the internet.
Overall I would highly recommend this book and videos to anyone who wishes to learn Python period and it’s cheaper that DataCamp subscription etc

Simple and Easy to Read Text That Accompanies Internet Based Lectures
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 5 August 2020This is a great book for Python beginners. It is well structured and is the basis of several accompanying lectures (available via the internet). I recommend this book to anyone one looking to become reasonably proficient in programming in Python and reading Python programmes.

Very helpful to learn python. Make sure you watch the videos.
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 27 April 2021This has been a very good tool for learning about python. I originally found this due to starting a course on Coursera it was a suggested book. I found it useful for learning.
I will say the videos work in tandem with the book.
I am pleased with it. The videos can be found on Amazon prime.

Noah5 out of 5 starsThis Python book is used by my university
Reviewed in Australia on 15 October 2024Good book, very helpful for starting out. You will not become a master programmer, but you will learn some things. The greatest advice is you have to apply your knowledge to a challenge - and have a deadline. That is what helped me in university.

cdyard5 out of 5 starsPratique et passionnant
Reviewed in France on 27 July 2019Un livre qui, comme son nom l'indique, s'adresse aux personnes qui désirent travailler sur des données en se servant de Python. Les programmes présentés sont précis, bien expliqués, et peuvent facilement être adaptés aux besoins de chacun.

Marco M.5 out of 5 starsSemplice da comprendere
Reviewed in Italy on 17 August 2020Mi mancava il Python come linguaggio di programmazione.
Il libro spiega in maniera molto semplice le regole della programmazione in python. E' chiaro che se si dispone di un background di algoritmi e strutture dati o di gestione database, sarà più semplice applicare queste nuove nozioni a ciò che già si conosce. E comunque anche in mancanza di queste nozioni, il libro spiega in modo molto efficace come fare delle semplici query in sql, ricavare dati da internet in formato xml o json per rappresentarli in altro modo.
Ho trovato molto semplice il modo di spiegare le espressioni regolari, argomento sempre un po' ostico negli altri linguaggi.
