Book Description

Python is among the most popular programming languages in the world. It’s ideal for beginners because it’s easy to read and write. It’s great for developers because it’s widely available with a strong support community, extensive documentation, and phenomenal libraries (both built-in and user-contributed). It’s leading the way in machine learning and data science due to its efficiency and speed. At the time of this writing, over 4,000 open jobs list Python as a skill, more than any other programming language.

By taking this course, you will become empowered in Python. You can leverage your Python skills in technical jobs, personal projects, and job interviews. You will gain an edge in data science, web development, and software development. You will be ready to solve real-world, challenging problems in Python and pursue advanced topics on your own.

Written by a team of expert authors, each component has been explicitly designed to engage and stimulate different parts of the brain so that you can retain and apply what you learn in a practical context with maximum impact. By completing the course from start to finish, you’ll walk away feeling capable of tackling any real-world Python development problem.

What you will learn

• Write efficient and concise functions with core Python methods and libraries
• Build classes to address different business needs
• Create visual graphs to communicate key data insights
• Organize big data and use machine learning to make regression and classification predictions
• Develop web pages and programs with Python tools and packages
• Automate essential tasks using Python scripts in real-time execution

Who This Book Is For

This book is for professionals, students and hobbyists who want to learn Python and apply it to solve challenging real-world problems. Although this is a beginner’s course, it’s helpful to know standard programming topics like variables, if-else statements and functions. Experience with another object-oriented program, though not essential, is beneficial. If Python is your first attempt at computer programming, we will cover the basics with adequate detail for a motivated student.
