About this title

Synopsis

This book is designed to be used as the primary textbook in a college-level first course in computing. It takes a fairly traditional approach, emphasizing problem solving, design, and programming as the core skills of computer science. However, these ideas are illustrated using a non-traditional language, namely Python. Although Python is the language, teaching Python is not the main point of this book. Rather, Python is used to illustrate fundamental principles of design and programming that apply in any language or computing environment. In some places, certain Python features and idioms that are not generally found in other languages are avoided. There are already many good books about Python on the market; this book is intended as an introduction to computing.

Review

"Disguised as a Python textbook, it's really an introduction to programming, using Python as the preffered medium for beginners." -- Guido van Rossum, Creator of Python

"Introduces Python and computer science concepts in a style that beginning students find appealing and easy to understand." -- Dave Reed, Capital University

"Provides clear explanation of introductory programming concepts, and shows why Python is an excellent choice for a first language." -- Russell May, Morehead State University
