Learn to Program with Python 3

Аннотация

Python is a general-purpose programming language. That means it was designed and developed to write software for a wide variety of disciplines. Python has been used to write applications to solve problems in biology, chemistry, financial analysis, numerical analysis, robotics, and many other fields. It is also widely used as a scripting language for use by computer administrators, who use it to capture and replay sequences of computer commands. It is different from a language like HTML (HyperText Markup Language), which was designed for the single purpose of allowing people to specify the layout of a web page. Once you learn the basic concepts of a programming language like Python, you find that you can pick up a new computer languages very quickly. No matter what the language (and there are many) the underlying concepts are very similar. The key things that you learn about—variables, assignment statements, if statements, while loops, function calls—are all concepts that are easily transferable to any other programming language
