Developer's Library: Programming in Python 3

Viac o knihe

This edition has been superseded by the second edition, which includes corrections and new chapters, making it a better value at a similar price. The first edition covers Python 3.0, while the second edition addresses both Python 3.0 and 3.1, clearly marking the differences. Note that Python's developers recommend 3.1 as the minimum version, as 3.0 will not receive security fixes. Due to the language moratorium, Python 3.1 will remain unchanged in 3.2, which will include bug fixes and library improvements. This makes the second edition relevant for Python 3.0, 3.1, and 3.2. Python 3 is the most powerful and expressive version of the language to date. Mark Summerfield demonstrates how to leverage Python 3's features and idioms effectively. As the first book written entirely from a "Python 3" perspective, it consolidates essential knowledge for writing programs, utilizing standard or third-party libraries, and creating new library modules. Summerfield shares valuable insights from his extensive Python experience, offering a comprehensive tutorial and language reference. The examples are tested on Windows, Linux, and Mac OS X, and are available for download from the author's website.
