Book Reviews of Learning Python, 3rd Edition
Book Review: Written by the world leader in Python training
Summary: 5 Stars
Mark Lutz's LEARNING PYTHON, 3RD EDITION covers the latest edition of Python and includes tips on the program's built-in object types, statements, functions, modules, exceptions and more. College-level collections strong in programming languages in general and Python in particular will appreciate the coverage, written by the world leader in Python training and author of many previous writings on Python since 1992.Book Review: Doesn't deserve the title Learning Python like Learning Perl does
Summary: 2 Stars
I'm disappointed in this book; I'm at page 128, and I am still not learning any other python than one or two line commands.
I had expected something like Learning Perl: right from the start, that Perl book contains small, 5 to 15 line programs from which you learn Perl quickly.
Not in this book Learning Python. So far it looks more like a summary of available commands and Python grammar.
Book Review: Great introductory book
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a really good introduction to Python. It is very clear, accessible and has quite a lot of substantial content. It does not get into the really deep details, but that is OK because if it tried to the book would become overwhelming. On the other hand, unlike some python books it is not so light and superficial to be good for newbies only. I think this is a great starter book on Python.Book Review: Good introduction to Python, to get you started
Summary: 4 Stars
This is one of the best introductory book I ever read on Python. This is a well-designed, well-written and concise book.
It gives you all the knowledge that you need to write system administration utilities, Internet-related programs and other small applications.
I will recommend this book to beginners to expert level.
Book Review: An EXCELLENT textbook for new Python learnings
Summary: 5 Stars
This is an excellent book to learn Python. It is for new Python users who have some background in object oriented programming. It is a good "learning" book. Recommend buying "Python in a Nutshell" as a companion since it is a good reference book (or "Python Cookbook"). But this is the best book I've seen to learn Python.
