A Beginners Guide to Python 3 Programming by John Hunt

This textbook on Python 3 explains concepts such as variables and what they represent, how data is held in memory, how a for loop works and what a string is. It also introduces key concepts such as functions, modules and packages as well as object orientation and functional programming. Each section is prefaced with an introductory chapter, before continuing with how these ideas work in Python.

Topics such as generators and coroutines are often misunderstood and these are explained in detail, whilst topics such as Referential Transparency, multiple inheritance and exception handling are presented using examples.

A Beginners Guide to Python 3 Programming provides all you need to know about Python, with numerous examples provided throughout including several larger worked case studies illustrating the ideas presented in the previous chapters.

“This comprehensive, well-written book covers the programming language Python in great depth …It is better suited for those with previous programming experience and an awareness of programming paradigms and concepts.” (Michael Oudshoorn, Computing Reviews, August 5, 2021)
