Reviews

Good Python Book for a Refresher

I learnt Python a few years ago, so I was looking for a book to help me refresh my knowledge. I love the challenges in this book. I have not done all of them yet, but so far, the challenges I have done are helping me relearn some Python fundamentals. Solving challenges is the best way to learn. ~ Twitter User

Best Way to Learn is to Practice

Working my way through the challenges for each day and enjoying it - and importantly learning. The book is not for absolute beginners, but once you know the basics after a few days, this acts as a great way to enhance skills. I have been rigorous in writing and testing my own code, before looking at the example answers. The example answers then show me quicker/better ways that I could have done it - though in a couple of instances I do like my versions better! Highly recommended if you want to learn or improve your Python skills. ~ J F O Ranger

Awesome Set of challenges

Some of the challenges may take only a few minutes to do, but what I've been doing is creating multiple ways of doing the same thing. Plus, I get to see what the Author's answer is. This book is a great way of working each day to write code to be better as a developer. I'm sure I'll be going through this book again once I'm finished. I look forward to seeing what new approaches I'll take as I learn more about Python ~ Russ Amazon

An Essential Test for any Python Learner

This book will challenge you to think things through. I found it as a good way to deepen my knowledge and start thinking for myself, instead of blindly following tutorials. ~ Amazon
