Some of its key distinguishing features include a very clear, readable syntax, strong introspection capabilities, intuitive object orientation, and natural expression of procedural code. Plus, Python features full modularity, supporting hierarchical packages, exception-based error handling, and modules easily written in C, C++, Java, R, or .NET languages, such as C#. In addition, Python supports a number of coding styles that include: functional, imperative, object-oriented, and procedural. Due to its ease of use and flexibility, Python is constantly growing in popularity--and now you can wear your programming hat with pride and join the ranks of the pros with the help of this guide. Inside, expert author John Paul Mueller gives a complete step-by-step overview of all there is to know about Python. From performing common and advanced tasks, to collecting data, to interacting with package--this book covers it all! Use Python to create and run your first application Find out how to troubleshoot and fix errors Learn to work with Anaconda and use Magic Functions Benefit from completely updated and revised information since the last edition If you've never used Python or are new to programming in general, Beginning Programming with Python For Dummies is a helpful resource that will set you up for success.

But what if you could have your computer do this work for you? In this fully revised third edition of Automate the Boring Stuff with Python, you'll learn how to use Python to write programs that do in minutes what would take you hours to do by hand--no prior programming experience required. Early chapters will teach you the fundamentals of Python through clear explanations and engaging examples. You'll write your first Python program; work with strings, lists, dictionaries, and other data structures; then use regular expressions to find and manipulate text patterns. Once you've mastered the basics, you'll tackle projects that teach you to use Python to automate tasks like: Searching the web, downloading content, and filling out forms; Finding, extracting, and manipulating text and data in files and spreadsheets; Copying, moving, renaming, or compressing saved files on your computer; Splitting, merging, and extracting text from PDFs and Word documents; Interacting with applications through custom mouse and keyboard macros; Managing your inbox, unsubscribing from lists, and sending email or text notifications. New to this edition: All code and examples have been thoroughly updated. You'll also find four new chapters on database integration, speech recognition, and audio and video editing, as well as 16 new programming projects and expanded coverage of developer techniques like creating command line programs. Don't spend your time on work a well-trained monkey could do. Even if you've never written a line of code, you can pass off that grunt work to your computer. Learn how in Automate the Boring Stuff with Python.--
