Learning Resources: Books

I love books, especially programming books.

I own or have owned each of the books below (or an earlier edition) and have read most or all of each of them. I highly recommend these for folks studying Python:

For Beginners to Programming:

Automate the Boring Stuff with Python

Head First Programming

Think Python: How to Think Like a Computer Scientist

For programmers switching to Python:

Head First Python

For programmers wanting to learn specialized topics:

Python 3 Object Oriented Programming

Python for Data Analysis

Miscellaneous:

Python Pocket Reference, 5th Edition

 

 

 

One thought on “Learning Resources: Books

  1. As someone who came to python from a C background, I found the language fairly intuitive, and eventually I learned to write “pythonic” code. One book that helped to fill in the gaps in my working knowledge of python was “Serious Python”, yet another title by No Starch Press.
