Introduction

Knowing where to start when learning a new skill can be a challenge, especially when the topic seems so vast. There can be so much information available that you can't even decide where to start. Or worse, you start down the path of learning and quickly discover too many concepts, programming examples, and nuances that aren't explained. This kind of experience is frustrating and leaves you with more questions than answers.

Python Programming for Beginner s doesn't make any assumptions about your background or knowledge of computer programming or the Python language. You need no prior knowledge to benefit from this book. You will be guided step by step using a logical and systematic approach. As new concepts, code, or jargon are encountered they are explained in plain language, making it easy for anyone to understand.

Throughout the book you will presented with many examples and various Python programs. You can download all of the examples as well as additional resources at http://www.LinuxTrainingAcademy.com/python-for-beginners .

Let's get started.

Configuring your Environment for Python
Installing Python
Choosing Python 2 or Python 3

If you are starting a new project or are just learning Python I highly recommend using Python 3. Python 3.0 was released in 2008 and at this point the Python 2.x series is considered legacy. However, there are a lot of Python 2 programs that are still in use today and you may encounter them from time to time. The good news is that the Python 2.7 release bridges the gap between Python 2 and Python 3. Much of the code written for Python 3 will work on Python 2.7. However, that same code will most likely not run unmodified on Python versions 2.6 and lower.

Long story short, if at all possible use the latest version of Python available. If you must use Python 2, use Python 2.7 as it is compatible with all Python 2 code and much of Python 3. The primary reason to choose Python 2 over Python 3 is if your project requires third-party software that is not yet compatible with Python 3.

Windows Installation Instructions

Mac Installation Instructions

At the time of this writing the Mac operating system ships with Python 2. In order to use the latest version of Python, you will need to download and install it. Visit the Python downloads page at https://www.python.org/downloads and click on "Download Python 3.x.x." Double click on the file you just downloaded to access the contents of the disk image. Run the installer by double clicking on the "Python.mpkg" file. If you encounter a message stating that "Python.mpkg cant be opened because it is from an unidentified developer," you will need to control-click the Python.mpkg file. Next, select "Open with ..." and finally click on "Installer." When you are asked if you are sure you want to open it, click "Open."

You will now have a Python folder that resides in the Applications folder. In the Python folder you will find a link to IDLE, the Integrated DeveLopment Environment, and a link to some Python documentation. In addition to accessing Python from IDLE, you can open up the Terminal application, located at /Application/Utilities/Terminal, and ru n python . Later in this chapter you will learn how to run Python programs using IDLE and the command line.
