Author Description

Painless Python: Learn Python Programming Doing the Easy Stuff First provides students with a fresh and practical approach to programming. Have you ever read a programming book where half-way through a chapter you say, "Wait a minute! I'm not ready to learn that. I don't have any experience with this." Many programming textbooks overwhelm the reader with complexity before they've had a chance to get a feel for the language. Painless Python takes a different approach. It covers the same concepts and programming techniques as a typical Python book, but in an order that's much easier to digest and understand. Each chapter touches on multiple areas of programming, but with the easy stuff covered first. As the chapters progress, a bit more complexity is added to the multiple areas covered. By the end of the book, students are equipped with the knowledge they need to write complex Python programs.
