Synopsis

Learn Python the fun and easy way with your new friends Erik and Simon!

A Pythonic Adventure, is a unique Python beginners guide, written especially for young people. This colorful book uses engaging questions and lively conversations to introduce computer programming to young readers one step at a time.

There are no boring lessons or dull exercises; instead, you will team up with two brothers, Erik and Simon, who are busy talking about Python programming and asking the same questions you are!

As you follow along, you will learn from the brothers' mistakes, discover how to write programs with a team, and get a chance to create applications you can use in your daily life. All code in this book runs on Mac, Windows, Linux, and Raspberry Pi.

The engaging questions and lively conversations in the book will help you learn useful Python skills like:

• Installing Python
• Working with files
• Creating text-based dialog boxes and menus
• Using if/then, loops, list, dictionaries, and input/output
• Building web applications
• Making your web apps look super professional

It's fun to learn with friends! Join them as they chat about the language, learn the basics, and build some cool programs. It's the perfect way for young programmers (and their parents!) to get started.

À propos de la quatrième de couverture

A Pythonic Adventure listens in on the conversations between two aspiring Python programmers. The book's dialogue helps young programmers understand complex concepts much more easily. Characters ask questions, make mistakes, and offer different solutions ― just like in real life. Readers will develop fun and engaging Python applications, including a coffee shop app for taking orders and a LEGO minifigure exchange program. Best of all, A Pythonic Adventure dives deeper than other beginner books. Inside are important skills for any new software developer, such as how to plan an application, what to expect from users, and how to test code and check for errors. By the time they are done reading, young learners will not only know how to write code, they will know how to think about problems like professional developers!
