New (or nearly new) programmers will learn most of what they need to know to start using Python immediately.

Introduction

Learn Python the fast and fun way! Hello! Python is a fully-illustrated, project-driven tutorial designed to get you up and running with Python, no experience required. It's full of projects that help you learn the way most programmers do one step at a time, starting with the basics, and then applying your new skills in useful programs. Hello! Python fully covers the building blocks of Python programming and gives you a gentle introduction to more advanced topics such as object oriented programming, functional programming, network programming, and program design. New (or nearly new) programmers will learn most of what they need to know to start using Python immediately. The book presents several practical projects, including games, business, and graphical applications. Each example provides a solid base for you to develop your own programs. As you dig into Python, you'll see how programs are created, and the reasons behind the technical decisions. The book covers Python's large standard library gradually and in the context of sample apps, so the reader isn't overwhelmed with a large number of library functions to absorb all at once. Upon completing the book, the reader will have a good grasp of Python, know several technologies and libraries related to Python and be able to identify many resources for future growth as a programmer.
