The aim of this book is to provide a first course in the use of Python to develop programs.
It provides a foundation for those who wish to write computer programs based on sound programming principles, and because the book is intended to be a primer, it allows the beginner to become comfortable with basic programming tasks.
As it is a first course, no previous experience of computer programming is assumed.
Throughout the book, we’ll explore the Python programming language with worked examples and lab exercises for you to complete yourself. For this purpose, we’ve included all the source code for this book in the following repository: github.com/apress/absolute-beginners-guide-python
