Learning Python: Powerful Object-Oriented Programming, 4th Edition

Google and YouTube use Python because it’s highly adaptable, easy to maintain, and allows for rapid development. If you want to write high-quality, efficient code that’s easily integrated with other languages and tools, this hands-on book will help you be productive with Python quickly — whether you’re new to programming or just new to Python. It’s an easy-to-follow self-paced tutorial, based on author and Python expert Mark Lutz’s popular training course.

Each chapter contains a stand-alone lesson on a key component of the language, and includes a unique Test Your Knowledge section with practical exercises and quizzes, so you can practice new skills and test your understanding as you go. You’ll find lots of annotated examples and illustrations to help you get started with Python 3.0.

• Learn about Python’s major built-in object types, such as numbers, lists, and dictionaries
• Create and process objects using Python statements, and learn Python’s general syntax model
• Structure and reuse code using functions, Python’s basic procedural tool
• Learn about Python modules: packages of statements, functions, and other tools, organized into larger components
• Discover Python’s object-oriented programming tool for structuring code
• Learn about the exception-handling model, and development tools for writing larger programs
• Explore advanced Python tools including decorators, descriptors, metaclasses, and Unicode processing

谷歌和YouTube之所以使用Python，是因为它具有很强的适应性，易于维护，并且允许快速开发。如果您想要编写高质量、高效率的代码，并且可以轻松地与其他语言和工具集成，无论您是编程新手还是新手，这本实践性书籍都将帮助您快速高效地使用Python。这是一个简单易懂的自学教程，基于作者和Python专家Mark Lutz的热门培训课程。
