Python Programming for Absolute Beginners

PYTHON PROGRAMMING FOR ABSOLUTE BEGINNERS

Python is no less than one of the most popular programming languages today. As far as other programming languages go, this one is classified as a high-level programming language.

That means the words and terms used in Python closely resemble modern-day English. That means you don't need to learn a lot of jargon.

It also has plenty of real-life applications such as artificial intelligence, scientific computing, scripting, and web programming. That's a lot of applications that you can aim for in the future as you learn more about programming in general.

But let's not get ahead of ourselves.

The goal of this book is to teach you the fundamental principles of writing a computer program using Python. You will learn how to formulate logical instructions that a computer can follow. You will also learn how programs flow from one line to the next, and so on.

Along the way, you will learn the ins and outs of the Python programming language from how to download it for free all the way to running Python programs that provide solutions to a variety of potential real-life problems.

This book will contain a few quizzes and some programming exercises that you can try. They are designed to help you gauge how much you have learned and put to practice the concepts that you have internalized. These exercises also help you think outside the box.

Not all the answers are provided here but if you review the discussion within that chapter, it will help you find the answers there.

Remember, this book is designed to be a complete beginner's guide. If you already have intermediate experience in programming then this book is not for you.
