What Readers Are Saying About
Practical Programming
Practical Programming is true to its name. The information it presents
anized around useful tasks rather than abstract constructs, and
each chapter addresses a well-contained and important aspect of pro-
gramming in Python. A student wondering “How do I make -
puter do X?” would be able to find their answer very quickly with this
book.

Science is about learning by performing experiments. This book
puter science students to experiment with short,
interactive Python scripts and in the process learn fundamental con-
cepts such as data structures, sorting and searching algorithms,
object-oriented programming, accessing databases, graphical user
interfaces, and good program design. Clearly written text along with
pelling examples, diagrams, and images make this an
excellent book for the beginning programmer.

What, piler, no sample payroll application? What kind of pro-
gramming book is this? A great one, that’s what. It launches from a
“You don’t know anything yet” premise into a fearless romp through
the concepts and techniques of relevant programming technology.
And what fun students will have with the images and graphics in the
exercises!

The debugging section is truly excellent. I know several practicing pro-
grammers who’d be rightfully offended by a suggestion to study the
whole book but who could really do with brushing up on this section
(and many others) once in a while.

This book eeds in two different ways. It is both a science-focused
CS1 text and a targeted Python reference. Even as i
