Learn to program fast in 155 challenges, 53 examples and 85
pages.There's no substitute for practice when it comes to learning
a new skill! Python syntax is simple to learn, but becoming an
expert in writing programs to solve different kinds of problems
takes a bit longer. That's why this book has a short explanation of
each new statement or technique, followed by one or more examples
and then loads of practice challenges.Some of the challenges will
take you only a minute or two, using the Python Interactive window
to try out new statements and get immediate results. As you get
further into the book, you will be challenged to write programs to
perform different kinds of tasks - for example to find the results
of a calculation, write a program for a simplified cash machine,
sort a list of items into alphabetical order, or to record data in
a text file to be read, formatted, and printed.The programming
solutions to some challenges have been helpfully simplified for an
inexperienced programmer to modify rather than to write from
scratch. This builds your confidence in problem-solving. That's why
35 challenges consist of partially written programs for you to
complete.
