Python All-In-One For Dummies

For someone who is not a Python programmer, I had watched one tutorial on the internet and then decided to purchase this book. I like it and I'm filling in gaps from the overall tutorial I did. Not sure if I will be a great programmer by the end, but it's definitely getting me closer to understanding how to program in Python.

I like this books due to how easy to read it with a lot of examples to help me to understand since it is my first time so I would recommend this to all beginner

I like reading For Dummies books to get the broad picture before I do a deep dive. I need to do some Python at work now, and thought I would do a review with a For Dummies book. This is 7 books in one. It resparked my interest in playing with the raspberry pi. It reads smoothly despite the typos and I was going to let it go. But on page 139 it says putting code above the “continue” is optional. OK. But there is no “continue”, there is only a “break”. I’m only doing a refresher, so I know the two terms are related, but for someone trying to learn how to program, they are going to sit there thinking why can’t I understand this? I like reading computer books. I hereby volunteer to proofread the next version of this book for free if you won’t pay someone to do it well.

Good book for its intended purpose, but did not meet my needs. If your looking for a basic how-to book in the tradition sense, this book is not for you. If you want overall knowledge on being a data scientist or a career scope, this is your book.

A great beginners book for learning Python. This book explains the subject matter in an easy understandable manner.

Well written and clear -- better than the other introductory texts (and online courses) I've examined.

Great summary of python. Not really in depth but still well written.

I have always been more or less impressed with the wisdom and knowledge provided by the 'for dummies' books.. until now. While I am sure the authors are very knowledgeable in computer programming, they have shown a complete lack of skills when it comes to publishing a book. First of all there are so many typos and grammatical errors that it is hard to read for comprehension. Secondly, the "instructions" to load certain programs and set them up can not be followed as written. I really wanted to learn about the Python3 scripting language but it looks like I will have to seek this knowledge elsewhere as this book turned out to be a complete guide to frustration.. but not really helpful in learning a computer language.

very happy, very useful

Che cavolo se uno usa idle è meglio che cerchi altrove... questi stanno a vendere e spiegare il loro ambiente di programmazione per pagine e pagine.

I was fairly experienced with C programming, but totally new to Python. This was a fairly gentle introduction. The book contains a lot of additional material, which might come in useful in the future.

I got what I expected! Really useful and easy to read, highly recommended. Just a detail on the back cover due to problems in the packaging.

This book look like I'm going to masters in python. Everything has clear explanation and images
