Overview of this book

Learn Python Programming is a quick, thorough, and practical introduction to Python - an extremely flexible and powerful programming language that can be applied to many disciplines. Unlike other books, it doesn't bore you with elaborate explanations of the basics but gets you up-and-running, using the language. You will begin by learning the fundamentals of Python so that you have a rock-solid foundation to build upon. You will explore the foundations of Python programming and learn how Python can be manipulated to achieve results. Explore different programming paradigms and find the best approach to a situation; understand how to carry out performance optimization and effective debugging; control the flow of a program; and utilize an interchange format to exchange data. You'll also walk through cryptographic services in Python and understand secure tokens. Learn Python Programming will give you a thorough understanding of the Python language. You'll learn how to write programs, build websites, and work with data by harnessing Python's renowned data science libraries. Filled with real-world examples and projects, the book covers various types of applications, and concludes by building real-world projects based on the concepts you have learned.

Second approach – a GUI application

There are several libraries that write GUI applications in Python. The most famous ones are Tkinter, wxPython, PyGTK, and PyQt. They all offer a wide range of tools and widgets that you can use to compose a GUI application.

The one I'm going to use for the rest of this chapter is Tkinter. Tkinter stands for Tk interface and it is the standard Python interface to the Tk GUI toolkit. Both Tk and Tkinter are available on most Unix platforms, macOS X, as well as on Windows systems.

Let's make sure that tkinter is installed properly on your system by running this command:

$ python -m tkinter

It should open a dialog window, demonstrating a simple Tk interface. If you can see that, we're good to go. However, if it doesn't work, please search for tkinter in the Python official documentation (https://docs.python.org/3.7/library...
