Book Description
Learn to Code by Solving Problems is a practical introduction to programming using Python. It uses coding-competition challenges to teach you the mechanics of coding and how to think like a savvy programmer. Computers are capable of solving almost any problem when given the right instructions. That’s where programming comes in. This beginner’s book will have you writing Python programs right away. You’ll solve interesting problems drawn from real coding competitions and build your programming skills as you go. Every chapter presents problems from coding challenge websites, where online judges test your solutions and provide targeted feedback. As you practice using core Python features, functions, and techniques, you’ll develop a clear understanding of data structures, algorithms, and other programming basics. Bonus exercises invite you to explore new concepts on your own, and multiple-choice questions encourage you to think about how each piece of code works. You’ll learn how to: Run Python code, work with strings, and use variables Write programs that make decisions Make code more efficient with while and for loops Use Python sets, lists, and dictionaries to organize, sort, and search data Design programs using functions and top-down design Create complete-search algorithms and use Big O notation to design more efficient code By the end of the book, you’ll not only be proficient in Python, but you’ll also understand how to think through problems and tackle them with code. Programming languages come and go, but this book gives you the lasting foundation you need to start thinking like a programmer.

At the beginning of the book general problem solving concepts such as types of problems, difficulties in problem solving, and problem solving aspects are discussed. From this book, you will start learning the Python programming by knowing about the variables, constants, keywords, data types, indentation and various programming constructs. The most commonly used types such as Lists, Tuples, dictionaries are also discussed with necessary examples and illustrations. The book includes the concepts of functions, lambda functions, modules and strings. In the later part of this book the concept of object oriented programming using Python is discussed in detail. Finally how to handle files and directories using Python is discussed. At the end of book some sample programs in Python are given that are based on the programming constructs. Python will be most demanded language after Java in future. So learning Python is need for today’s software professionals.
