Recommended reading for a “shining tech career” by Techradar IndiaPython Crash Course was selected as one of the best books for learning Python by Real Python“It has been interesting to see, over the last few years, No Starch Press, which produces this book, growing and producing future classics that should be alongside the more traditional O’Reilly Press programming books. Python Crash Course is one of those books.”—Greg Laden, ScienceBlogs“All of these projects are well thought out and presented in such a way that learning the subject matter and implementing it is much more an enjoyable pastime rather than an onerous task that must be completed. Eric took the time to deal with some rather complex projects and lay them out in a consistent, logical and pleasant manner that draws the reader into the subject willingly, which unfortunately, many authors fail to do.”—Full Circle Magazine“The book is well presented with good explanations of the code snippets. It works with you, one small step at a time, building more complex code, explaining what's going on all the way.”—FlickThrough Reviews“Learning Python with Python Crash Course was an extremely positive experience! A great choice if you’re new to Python.”—Mikke Goes Coding Eric Matthes is a high school science and math teacher living in Alaska where he teaches Introduction to Python. He has been writing programs since he was five years old.

Python Crash Course is a fast-paced, thorough introduction to Python that will have you writing programs, solving problems, and making things that work in no time.

In the first half of the book, you’ll learn about basic programming concepts, such as lists, dictionaries, classes, and loops, and practice writing clean and readable code with exercises for each topic. You’ll also learn how to make your programs interactive and how to test your code safely before adding it to a project. In the second half of the book, you’ll put your new knowledge into practice with three substantial projects: a Space Invaders–inspired arcade game, data visualizations with Python’s super-handy libraries, and a simple web app you can deploy online.

As you work through Python Crash Course you’ll learn how to:
–Use powerful Python libraries and tools, including matplotlib, NumPy, and Pygal
–Make 2D games that respond to keypresses and mouse clicks, and that grow more difficult as the game progresses
–Work with data to generate interactive visualizations
–Create and customize Web apps and deploy them safely online
–Deal with mistakes and errors so you can solve your own programming problems


If you’ve been thinking seriously about digging into programming, Python Crash Course will get you up to speed and have you writing real programs fast. Why wait any longer? Start your engines and code!

I'm taking programming courses to complete a teaching authorization in computer science and this book is 10x better than the required text This book is a life-saver! I'm taking programming courses to complete a teaching authorization in computer science and this book is 10x better than the required text. Each programming concept is explained well and followed by a chunk of code that has a line-by-line narrative explanation of what the code does. At the end of each section, there are "Try It Yourself" mini-projects to apply your learning. They can take anywhere from 5-45 minutes to complete but they are perfect for checking your own understanding of each concept. If/when I teach an Intro to Python course, this will be MY required text!Excellent Beginner Material Over the course of the last 7 or 8 months I've completed Learn Python the Hard Way, a Coursera Course, maybe another short online course, and this book. I gotta say, this book is my favorite of them all. I feel like it's hard for some authors to understand what a beginner is thinking because what's obvious for a pro is sometimes not so obvious to a beginner. With that being said, the author is great at understanding his audience. Everything is written is straight English. There were many times in Python the Hard Way that i found myself saying, "But....how did you get this?" or "Did i miss some section where this was talked about?" but not with this book. Like i said, I started this book AFTER going through all those other materials so I'm not sure how it would fair with someone who is starting at absolute zero, but my honest opinion is that if i had started here and moved on i would have perhaps been a bit further at this point.To sum up, it's a great buy and well worthy of your time if you're trying to get some basic Python knowledge. Extra kudos for writing examples in both Python 2.7 and 3.Excellent book. Gets you coding right away - the ... Excellent book. Gets you coding right away - the endorphin rush when you get things to work keeps you going. The projects are substantial and satisfying and the author is able to introduce tools like Django, Git, Heroku etc to build some pretty cool stuff. Check out Eric's Github repo for content updates and corrections (first double-check to see if you have entered the code correctly). Best of all, Eric was incredibly helpful when I reached out to him by e-mail about some Django installation issues - super cool of him to do so. Highly recommend.
