| 4. Learn Python the Hard Way, 2nd Edition | |||||||||
 |
This simple book is meant to give you a first start in programming. The title says it is the hard way to learn to write code but it is actually not. It is the hard way only in that it is the way people used to teach things. In this book you will do something incredibly simple that all programmers actually do to learn a language. This is a very beginner book for people who want to learn to code. If you can already code then look elsewhere. It is targeted for newbies to build up their skills before starting a more detailed book. The 2nd Edition features 5 new exercises, fixes and updates to nearly every exercise, and three of the new exercises teach you to create a simple web application as the final part of the book. The book consists of:

| 8. Text Processing in Python | |||||||||
 |
Text Processing in Python describes techniques for manipulation of text using the Python programming language. At the broadest level, text processing is simply taking textual information and doing something with it. This might be restructuring or reformatting it, extracting smaller bits of information from it, or performing calculations that depend on the text. Text processing is arguably what most programmers spend most of their time doing. Because Python is clear, expressive, and object-oriented it is a perfect language for doing text processing, even better than Perl. As the amount of data everywhere continues to increase, this is more and more of a challenge for programmers. This book is not a tutorial on Python. The author provides practical pointers and tips that emphasize efficent, flexible, and maintainable approaches to the text processing tasks that working programmers face daily. Text Processing in Python begins with an introduction to text processing and contains a quick Python tutorial to get you up to speed. It then delves into essential text processing subject areas, including string operations, regular expressions, parsers and state machines, and Internet tools and techniques. Appendixes cover such important topics as data compression and Unicode. This book is copyright to Addison Wesley but can be downloaded without charge. | ||||||||
| 9. The Standard Python Library | |||||||||

This is an electronic edition which is based on the second edition published by O'Reilly in 2001. | ||||||||
| 10. The Definitive Guide to Pylons | |||||||||
 |
Pylons is a lightweight web framework built on standard Python tools that provides a robust environment for writing modern web applications. It is well known for its clean architecture and loosely coupled approach, both of which make web development fast, flexible, and easy. The Definitive Guide to Pylons teaches you everything you need to know about web development with Pylons - from how to create your first "Hello World!" application to how to use each of Pylons’ core tools including FormEncode, Mako, SQLAlchemy, and Routes to how to perform more advanced tasks such as testing, using Unicode, internationalizing your application, authenticating users, and more. It also helps developers make use of the software's built-in support for session management, web services, and Ajax.

| 11. Making Games with Python & Pygame | |||||||||
 |
This book teaches you how to make graphical computer games in the Python programming language using the Pygame library. It is targeted at the intermediate programmer. The book features the source code to 11 games. Each chapter focuses on a single game program, explaining how different parts of the code work. The games are clones of classics such as Nibbles, Tetris, Simon, Bejeweled, Othello, Ink Spill, Connect Four, Flood It, and others. The programs are less than 600 lines long.

| 12. Python Module of the Week | |||||||||
 |
Python Module of the Week (PyMOTW) is a series of blog posts written by Doug Hellmann. It was started as a way to build the habit of writing something on a regular basis. The focus of the series is building a set of example code for the modules in the Python standard library. PyMOTW is a good source of documentation for Python modules. PyMOTW includes a command line program, motw, to make it easier to access the examples while you are developing.

| 15. Data Structures and Algorithms with Object-Oriented Design Patterns in Python | |||||||||
 |
This book is about the fundamentals of data structures and algorithms - the basic elements from which large and complex software artifacts are built. To develop a solid understanding of a data structure requires three things:
This book also illustrates object-oriented design and it promotes the use of common, object-oriented design patterns. The algorithms and data structures in the book are presented in the Python programming language. Virtually all the data structures are presented in the context of a single class hierarchy. | ||||||||
| 16. Programming Computer Vision with Python | |||||||||
 |
This book gives a hands-on introduction to the underlying theory and algorithms of computer vision (images, videos, etc). It seeks to explain computer vision in simple terms, without becoming too embroiled in theory. You will learn techniques for object recognition, 3D reconstruction, stereo imaging, augmented reality, and other computer vision applications as you follow clear examples written in Python. There are complete code samples with accompanying explanations. The Python language compes with many powerful modules for handling images, mathematical computing and data mining.

| 19. The Art and Craft of Programming Python Edition | |||||||||
 |
This book is designed to be used as the primary textbook in a college-level first course in computing. It takes a fairly traditional approach, emphasizing problem solving, design, and programming as the core skills of computer science. However, these ideas are illustrated using Python. Although Python is used as the language, teaching Python is not the focus of this book. Rather, Python is used to illustrate fundamental principles of design and programming that apply in any language or computing environment. In some places, the author has deliberately avoided certain Python features and idioms that are not generally found in other languages. There are already many good books about Python on the market; this book is intended as an introduction to computing. Topics covered include:
