Learning Python

Overview of this book

Learning Python has a dynamic and varied nature. It reads easily and lays a good foundation for those who are interested in digging deeper. It has a practical and example-oriented approach through which both the introductory and the advanced topics are explained. Starting with the fundamentals of programming and Python, it ends by exploring very different topics, like GUIs, web apps and data science. The book takes you all the way to creating a fully fledged application. The book begins by exploring the essentials of programming, data structures and teaches you how to manipulate them. It then moves on to controlling the flow of a program and writing reusable and error proof code. You will then explore different programming paradigms that will allow you to find the best approach to any situation, and also learn how to perform performance optimization as well as effective debugging. Throughout, the book steers you through the various types of applications, and it concludes with a complete mini website built upon all the concepts that you learned.

Chapter 12. Summing Up – A Complete Example

 

"Do not dwell in the past, do not dream of the future, concentrate the mind on the present moment."

 
 --The Shakyamuni Buddha

In this chapter, I will show you one last project. If you've worked well in the rest of the book, this example should be easy. I tried my best to craft it in a way that it will neither be too hard for those who have only read the book, nor too simple for those who also took the time to work on the examples, and maybe have read up on the links and topics I suggested.
