Most Programmer’s learning Python are usually comfortable with some or the other programming language and are not interested in going through the typical learning curve of learning the first programming language. Instead, they are looking for something that can get them off the ground quickly. They are looking for similarities and differences in a feature that they have used in other language(s) plus what extra does the new language offer. This book should help them immensely.. It guides you from the fundamentals of using module through the use of advanced object orientation, concurrence and synchronization.

Programming landscape has changed significantly over the last few years. Python is making inroads into every field that has anything to do with programming. Naturally, Python programming is a skill that one has to acquire, sooner the better.

If you have no programming background and you are learning Python as your first programming language you will find the book very simple to understand. Primary credit of this goes to the Python language - it is very simple for the beginner, yet very powerful for the expert who can tap into its power.

If you have some acquaintance with a programming language, you need to get off the ground with Python quickly. To do that you need to understand the similarities/differences in a feature that you have usedin other language(s) and new features that Python offers. In both respects this book should help you immensely. Instead of explaining a feature with verbose text, we have mentioned the key points about it as 'KanNotes' and explained those points with the help of programs. The most important characteristic of this book is its simplicity - be it the code or the text. You will also notice that very few programming examples in this book are code fragments. We have realized that a program that actually compiles and runs, helps improve one's understanding of a subject a great deal more, than just code snippets.

Exercises are exceptionally useful to complete the reader's understanding of a topic. So you will find them at the end of each chapter. Please do attempt them. They will really make you battle-ready.
