Python Programming: An Introduction to Computer Science 2nd Edition by John Zelle is designed to be used as the primary textbook in a school-degree first course in computing. It takes a reasonably traditional approach, emphasizing drawback solving, design, and programming because the core abilities of computer science. However, these concepts are illustrated using a non-traditional language, namely Python.
Python is used because the language, educating Python is just not the principle point of this book. Somewhat, Python is used for example fundamental ideas of design and programming that apply in any language or computing environment. In some places, I have purposely averted sure Python features and idioms that are not generally found in different languages.
There are already many good books about Python in the marketplace; this book is meant as an introduction to computing. This book is extremely clear and well-written. It introduces a novice to the foundational concepts of computer science. There are many great examples and activities that the reader can jump into almost immediately.
