Starting Out with Python, 5th Edition eBook

This is the eBook of the printed book and may not include any media, website access codes, or print supplements that may come packaged with the bound book. Starting Out with Python® introduces the basics of programming in a high-level language using Tony Gaddis’s accessible, step-by-step approach. It discusses control structures, functions, and lists before classes. You’ll learn the fundamentals of programming without the troublesome syntax that can be challenging for novices. As with all Gaddis texts, clear and easy-to-read code listings, concise and practical real-world examples, focused explanations and an abundance of exercises appear in every chapter. With the knowledge acquired using Python, you’ll gain confidence in your skills and learn to recognize the logic behind developing high-quality programs. The 5th Edition include a new chapter on database programming and new coverage of GUI programming, string processing and formatting, and turtle graphics topics.
