A fast-paced introduction to Python for intermediate developers–now with coverage of generative AI!

The Quick Python Book has helped over 100,000 developers get up to speed in Python. This revised Fourth Edition covers Python’s latest features, control structures, and libraries, plus new coverage of working with AI-generated Python code.

The Quick Python Book, Fourth Edition includes:

Python syntax, data structures, and best practices
Python as an object oriented language
Common Python libraries
Basic data handling with Python
Using AI code generation tools with Python

Whether you’re new to Python or looking to advance your basic skills, The Quick Python Book, Fourth Edition will get you writing effective Python code fast. It concisely covers programming basics, while introducing Python's comprehensive standard library and unique features in depth and detail. You'll also learn to make the best use of AI coding tools like Copilot and Google's Colaboratory (Colab), comparing and contrasting human and AI code, and developing a mindset that can make the most of AI.

This book is intended to help people get a solid general understanding of Python as quickly as possible, avoiding getting bogged down in advanced topics, but covering the essentials to write and read Python code. In particular, this book is intended for people are coming to Python from other languages and those who know a bit of Python are looking to level up their skills as Python continues to gain popularity, particularly in areas like data science, machine learning, and the sciences. While no prior knowledge of Python is needed, some knowledge and experience with programming is necessary to get the most out of this book.

After introducing Python and offering some advice on getting started with a Python environment, there is a quick summary of Python’s syntax, followed by chapters that build from the built-in data types up through creating functions, classes, and packages, as well as some more advanced features and a case study in handling data.

about the book
The Quick Python Book, Fourth Edition is the definitive guide to the Python language, written by Python authority and former Chair of the Python Software Foundation Board or Directors Naomi Ceder. With the personal touch of a skilled teacher, Naomi beautifully balances details of the language with the insights and advice you need to handle any task. You’ll learn skills you can turn to doing almost anything with Python—from analyzing data, to writing scripts, and even developing software. Plus, quick-check questions, end-of-chapter labs, and a final case study all help consolidate your knowledge.

about the reader
For readers familiar with the basics of programming who are interested in learning Python. To get the most benefit from this book, you’ll want to have some established skills in programming, either in Python or in another programming language like Java, C++, Ruby, jаvascript, or something similar. Since this book assumes an understanding of common data types and flow control structures, experience with only HTML or SQL may not be a good fit.
