Who Should Read This Book
You can think of this as a sophomore Python book. It isn’t a tutorial on programming basics but rather a way for you to continue training using a project-based approach. This way, you won’t have to waste your money or shelf space rehashing concepts you’ve already learned. Vaughan explains every step of the projects, and you’ll receive detailed instructions about using the libraries and modules, including how to install them.
These projects will appeal to anyone who wants to use programming to conduct experiments, test theories, simulate nature, or just have fun. As you work through them, you’ll increase your knowledge of Python libraries and modules and learn handy shortcuts, useful functions, and helpful techniques. Rather than focus on isolated modular code snippets, these projects teach you how to build complete, working programs involving real-world applications, datasets, and issues.
