Introduction to Python Programming and Data Structures, Global Edition Summary

Introduction to Python Programming and Data Structures, Global Edition by Y. Liang

For introductory courses in Python Programming and Data Structures.

A fundamentals first approach to programming helps students create efficient, elegant code.

Introduction to Python Programming and Data Structures introduces students to basic programming concepts using a fundamentals-first approach that prepares students to learn object-oriented programming and advanced Python programming. This approach presents programming concepts and techniques that include control statements, loops, functions, and arrays before designing custom classes. Students learn basic logic and programming concepts prior to moving into object-oriented and GUI programming. The content incorporates a wide variety of problems with various levels of difficulty and covers many application areas to engage and motivate students.
