Python | Learn to Code Step by Step - M.Eng. Johannes Wild
Foreword
Thank you very much for choosing this book!
If you are looking for a practical guide for the easy to learn, yet very versatile programming language Python, then you are in the right place and well advised with this book! I am an engineer (M.Eng.) and would like to introduce you to the world of programming with Python simply explained. You will learn in this book both the theoretical basics of programming in Python, as well as the practical application using a lot of examples and also DIY projects. This book offers you an easy-to-understand, intuitively structured and practical introduction to the world of programming with Python! No matter whether Python 2 or Python 3!
This fundamentals book is specifically for anyone who has no or very primitive prior knowledge of programming and Python, but also for anyone who wants to learn Python as another programming language. No matter what age you are, what profession you have, whether you are a pupil, student or pensioner. This book is for anyone who wants (or needs) to learn about the fascinating subject of programming.
The goal of this book is to teach you step by step what the basics in Python are and how to successfully apply them to program your own scripts. So in this Python basic course you will learn everything you need to know as a beginner! The best thing to do is take a look inside the book and get your copy as an e-book or paperback!
The book is structured as intuitively as possible. This means that, especially in the first examples, there may well be code fragments that you will not yet understand, as these will be explained in detail later. If this is the case, please do not let this irritate you, but simply continue and always focus only on the part of the example code that has just been explained or has already been explained. As the reading progresses, you will then understand more and more of the program code of the examples in the learning process. Be sure to stick with it, even if it gets a little more complicated! Python is worth it!
1 Why Python?
Before we start with the basics of programming, in this first chapter we will take a look at why our decision to use Python was right and whether it is worth learning a programming language. Python is one of the most popular programming languages of our time. Why ? On the one hand, because Python is very user-friendly and very easy to learn, and on the other hand, because the Python programming language has a wide range of functions that can be used not only for simple use cases, but also for complex ones. Let's take a look at a few more aspects and advantages of Python, so that we can make sure that Python brings us the best start in programming.
Open Source
Python is an open-source programming language that thrives and grows on community support and contributions. The term open source is generally characterized by the fact that the software is freely available, active user participation is desired, and there are no restrictions on use. You can download the official Python software IDLE (Interactive Development Environment
) for free from the Python website. We will look at how this works in detail in a moment.
Availability of Libraries
Python has a very large number of additional libraries. What are libraries? A library represents an extension that allows us to quickly and easily implement additional functions or code. It is basically nothing more than code that has already been written by developers in the community. Most libraries can be found on platforms like GitHub (github.com) or Stackoverflow (stackoverflow.com). These websites are a kind of administrative platform / developer community for software development. If there are many libraries to choose from, this has the great advantage that beginners or even advanced users do not have to develop every single function from scratch. Since some (e.g. basic) functions are needed again and again and this also usually by other users, often someone already took care of the development of the code for a function and made this available. By already developed packages and modules one can use and/or implement this function then directly. Thus one can concentrate on the actual code and/or the actual function of a program. In a figurative sense, you could compare this to a car ride. You can get directly into a car and use components such as steering wheel, accelerator pedal, or air conditioning for the actual journey and do not have to construct the car for it or create individual functions.
Readability
Python can be read very well - even by beginners. This programming language is not quite as abstract as some others, where a beginner trying to read the programming language does not understand anything at first.
