Think Python: How to Think Like a Computer Scientist
If you want to learn how to program, working with Python is an excellent way to start. This hands-on guide takes you through the language one step at a time, beginning with basic programming concepts before moving on to functions, recursion, data structures, and object-oriented design.
Through exercises in each chapter, you’ll try out programming concepts as you learn them. Think Python: How to Think Like a Computer Scientist is ideal for students at the high school or college level, as well as self-learners, home-schooled students, and professionals who need to learn programming basics.
