Book Description
You already know you want to learn Python, and a smarter way to learn Python 3 is to learn by doing. The Python Workshop focuses on building up your practical skills so that you can work towards building up your machine learning skills as a data scientist, write scripts that help automate your life and save you time, or even create your own games and desktop applications. You'll learn from real examples that lead to real results.
Throughout The Python Workshop, you'll take an engaging step-by-step approach to understanding Python. You won't have to sit through any unnecessary theory. If you're short on time you can jump into a single exercise each day or spend an entire weekend learning about Python scripting. It's your choice. Learning on your terms, you'll build up and reinforce key skills in a way that feels rewarding.
Every physical print copy of The Python Workshop unlocks access to the interactive edition. With videos detailing all exercises and activities, you'll always have a guided solution. You can also benchmark yourself against assessments, track progress, and receive free content updates. You'll even earn a secure credential that you can share and verify online upon completion.

Who this book is for
This book is designed for professionals, students, and hobbyists who want to learn Python and apply it to solve challenging real-world problems. Although this is a beginner's book, it will help if you already know standard programming topics, such as variables, if-else statements, and functions. Experience with another object-oriented program is beneficial, but not mandatory.

He has written books including Professional Cocoa Application Security, Test-Driven iOS Development, APPropriate Behaviour and APPosite Concerns. He is a developer who's been programming for long enough to want to start telling other people about the mistakes he's made, in the hope that they'll avoid repeating them. In his case, this means having worked for about 12 years as a professional. His first programming experience can hardly be called professional at all: as it was in BASIC, on a Dragon 32 microcomputer. Corey Wade is a data scientist, author, and educator based in the Bay Area. He has a Master’s degree in Mathematics and a Master of Fine Arts degree in Writing and Consciousness. As a data scientist, Corey has used Python to design new metrics, including the first comprehensive 3-point basketball statistic (3NG) and listing or sorting helpful book reviews. A regular writer for Towards Data Science, Corey has published articles on the math and algorithms behind machine learning. With over 10,000 hours in the classroom, he has taught Python to beginners as well as advanced students, through Programming Power and One Student, One Class. When not at the classroom or beach, he’s catching up on various Jupyter Notebooks, Kaggle competitions, and math books.| Kategoria: | Computer Technology |
