Python for Programmers

Метки: python

This book assumes you’re an experienced programmer, and it’s best if you have learned Python through another book. For everyone else, this chapter gives a programmer’s introduction to the language.

This is not an introductory book. I am assuming that you have worked your way through at least Learning Python (by Mark Lutz & David Ascher; Oreilly, 1999) or an equivalent text before coming to this book.

This brief introduction is for the experienced programmer (which is what you should be if you’re reading this book). You can refer to the full documentation at www.Python.org.

I find the HTML page A Python Quick Reference to be incredibly useful.

In addition, I’ll assume you have more than just a grasp of the syntax of Python. You should have a good understanding of objects and what they’re about, including polymorphism.

On the other hand, by going through this book you’re going to learn a lot about object-oriented programming by seeing objects used in many different situations. If your knowledge of objects is rudimentary, it will get much stronger in the process of understanding the designs in this book.
