Learn Python The Hard Way

Description

"The world needs more weird people who know how things work and who love to figure it all out."Have you always wanted to learn how to code but never thought you could? Are you looking to build a foundation for more complex coding? Do you want to challenge your brain in a new way? Then Learn Python the Hard Way is the book for you. The Hard Way Is EasierLPTHW emphasizes precision, attention to detail, and persistence by requiring you to type each exercise (no copy-paste!) and make it run, as well as to read up on outside topics and to return to exercises and ideas that you don't understand, and understand them.At the end of LPTHW, you'll know the basics of coding, and be ready to move on to more challenging books. Or at least you'll have tried something new. What's New In The 2nd Edition? Exercises 50, 51, and 52 are completely rewritten to teach you how to write a web application game. Exercises 41 and 42 have a new game that's more complex and challenging. I also fixed a bunch of "bugs" in the text and the code of 50% of the exercises. About The BookThe book is very simple: 52 exercises in all 26 cover just input/output, variables, and functions 26 cover logic (boolean algebra, if-statements, while-loops, etc.)Each exercise is one or two pages and follows the exact same format. You type each one in (no copy-paste!), make it run, do the extra credit, and then move on. If you get stuck, at least type it in and skip the extra credit for later.
