About this Item

Neuware -A lightning-fast guide to Python for programmers who already know the basics.Dead Simple Python dives deep into the nuts and bolts of the Python programming language. It unpacks the technical 'whys' and 'hows' of the language's fundamental concepts and helps you use these concepts to write idiomatic Python. Throughout the book, McDonald delves into Python programming concepts like structuring a project, the Python type system, functional and object-oriented programming, loops and iterators, generators and comprehensions, concurrency, distribution, and other essentials. You'll go from basics to project deployment in under 400 pages.

About this title

Synopsis

The complete core language for existing programmers.

Dead Simple Python is a thorough introduction to every feature of the Python language for programmers who are impatient to write production code. Instead of revisiting elementary computer science topics, you’ll dive deep into idiomatic Python patterns so you can write professional Python programs in no time.
 
After speeding through Python’s basic syntax and setting up a complete programming environment, you’ll learn to work with Python’s dynamic data typing, its support for both functional and object-oriented programming techniques, special features like generator expressions, and advanced topics like concurrency. You’ll also learn how to package, distribute, debug, and test your Python project.
 
Master how to:

Make Python's dynamic typing work for you to produce cleaner, more adaptive code.

Harness advanced iteration techniques to structure and process your data.

Design classes and functions that work without unwanted surprises or arbitrary constraints.

Use multiple inheritance and introspection to write classes that work intuitively.

Improve your code's responsiveness and performance with asynchrony, concurrency, and parallelism.

Structure your Python project for production-grade testing and distribution

 
The most pedantically pythonic primer ever printed, Dead Simple Python will take you from working with the absolute basics to coding applications worthy of publication.
