Learning how to code can be daunting. Also, where and how should you start? For newcomers in need of a gentle introduction, Python for Absolute Beginners provides the perfect entry point. With the goal of making Python more accessible and appealing to a wider audience, this step-by-step guide is designed to teach you the basics without losing you in the first chapter with lines and lines of complex code. By the end of the book, you will have the skills, resources, and confidence to code basic applications and move on to advanced learning resources. Along the way, you will also find quizzes, practical exercises as well as examples on every page.

In this book, we use the most recent version of Python, which is Python 3. To practice the code examples and exercises contained in this book, you do not need to download Python on your computer (although this step is worthwhile for future learning and programming). Instead, each of the code samples and exercises included in this book can be performed inside a user-friendly development environment called Jupyter Notebook. Instructions for downloading Jupyter Notebook are included on the next page. You can also download all code demonstrated in the book for FREE and access video lessons that accompany key chapters of the book.

What you will learn from this book:
- The basic syntax of Python
- Assigning variables
- Types of data objects
- Methods
- Functions
- Comparison operators
- Automation using for and while loops
- Object-oriented programming
