Book Description
How can I improve my coding skills? This book has a unique approach, specially crafted for non-programmers/beginners. A sure way to become confident programmer is to master the technique of logic building skills. Solve pattern-based problems because it will improve the visualization of logic. After some level of practice, your mind will work like a mini-debugger where you could able to visualize the flow of data. If a problem asked in the interview or anywhere else, then we should able to get the logic correctly in a single chance, instead of guessing logic. This book is specially put in an easy way to be suitable for any age group and to fill the much-needed gap especially for:- Who is unaware of any approach to build programming logic? Who had a hard time learning to write a program? Who are teachers/trainers and looking for a reliable resource to create interest in the subject of programming for their students. Who had some experience in programming and not confident enough? Who carries the false notion that coding is only for super-smart people. Who are looking for a 1st solid move to become a self-taught programmer? Who had some experience in programming with pattern and looking for a STANDARD APPROACH to get the LOGIC RIGHT for any pattern. Who is a victim of discouragement comments, similar like the following? Actually, you aren't interested. You lack patience and determination.? Your IQ is well below average. Programming is not about memorizing programming logic or downloading standard college/university level algorithms by practice in our mind, rather we need to understand the approach to solve a problem. Many novice programmers and many frustrated programmers do ask similar kind of questions which are as follows; How to develop logic building skill? How to learn to code? How to improve program logic? The Right, Approach: So the rule of the thumb is, in order to learn programming language fast and properly, first learn to hack programming logic. So, initially building programming logic skills must be the first and foremost activity rather than concentrating more on the features/APIs of a programming language. This technical manual is totally dedicated to the beginner or intermediate students who are just tired of hitting hard on many places in order to become confident in programming. Additionally, if you are among those who got limited time to learn to program, this is the guide that can serve you well too. Learning with simple picture-based problems or pattern surely helps in improving coding skills. If we apply the wrong logical condition then the non-matching output will be generated. Learning in this way makes learning interesting and force us to put efforts & focused. So, in this way, it helps in logic building. In general, It suits to most of the beginners/non-programmers and programmer with weak coding skills. After mastering the skills from this book, a beginner can confidently solve logical problems like 2-3 years experienced programmer. This is just not a book but a sensible option to learn programming logic from the very minimal. Can you afford to miss the right way to learn programming skills?

Book Description
Master the art of writing beautiful and powerful Python by using all of the features that Python 3.5 offers About This Book Become familiar with the most important and advanced parts of the Python code style Learn the trickier aspects of Python and put it in a structured context for deeper understanding of the language Offers an expert's-eye overview of how these advanced tasks fit together in Python as a whole along with practical examples Who This Book Is For Almost anyone can learn to write working script and create high quality code but they might lack a structured understanding of what it means to be 'Pythonic'. If you are a Python programmer who wants to code efficiently by getting the syntax and usage of a few intricate Python techniques exactly right, this book is for you. What You Will Learn Create a virtualenv and start a new project Understand how and when to use the functional programming paradigm Get familiar with the different ways the decorators can be written in Understand the power of generators and coroutines without digressing into lambda calculus Create metaclasses and how it makes working with Python far easier Generate HTML documentation out of documents and code using Sphinx Learn how to track and optimize application performance, both memory and cpu Use the multiprocessing library, not just locally but also across multiple machines Get a basic understanding of packaging and creating your own libraries/applications In Detail Python is a dynamic programming language. It is known for its high readability and hence it is often the first language learned by new programmers. Python being multi-paradigm, it can be used to achieve the same thing in different ways and it is compatible across different platforms. Even if you find writing Python code easy, writing code that is efficient, easy to maintain, and reuse is not so straightforward. This book is an authoritative guide that will help you learn new advanced methods in a clear and contextualised way. It starts off by creating a project-specific environment using venv, introducing you to different Pythonic syntax and common pitfalls before moving on to cover the functional features in Python. It covers how to create different decorators, generators, and metaclasses. It also introduces you to functools.wraps and coroutines and how they work. Later on you will learn to use asyncio module for asynchronous clients and servers. You will also get familiar with different testing systems such as py.test, doctest, and unittest, and debugging tools such as Python debugger and faulthandler. You will learn to optimize application performance so that it works efficiently across multiple machines and Python versions. Finally, it will teach you how to access C functions with a simple Python call. By the end of the book, you will be able to write more advanced scripts and take on bigger challenges. Style and Approach This book is a comprehensive guide that covers advanced features of the Python language, and communicate them with an authoritative understanding of the underlying rationale for how, when, and why to use them.
