Musa Arda - Hands-On Python with 50 Exercises, 2 Projects, 2 Assignments & Final Exam: INTERMEDIATE

The goal of this book is to help students to learn Python programming language in a hands-on and project-based manner.

With its unique style of combining theory and practice, this book is for:

• people who are new to computer science and programming
• people who are new to Python
• people who want to gain solid Python Skills
• people who want to learn Python by doing Projects, Quizzes, Coding Exercises, Tests and Exams
• people who want to learn Python for Machine Learning, Deep Learning, Data Science and Software Development in general
• anyone who wants to learn real Python

The purpose of this book is to provide you a good introduction to the intermediate topics of Python programming. In general, you will gain solid programming skills and grasp the main idea of software development. In particular, here are some highlights on what you can you expect to learn with this book.

You will:

• learn & master Programming Fundamentals, Coding Algorithms and Computer Science Concepts
• go from Intermediate to Advanced level in Python with hands-on approach
• do exercises on fundamental topics of Python with 5 Quizzes and 50 Coding Exercises
• build 2 Real-World Project with Python and do 2 Assignments related to these projects
• take the Final Exam on Python with 20 questions to assess your learning
• build Python applications with PyCharm and master it
• learn Python fundamentals you need for Machine Learning, Deep Learning, Data Science and Application Development
• gain solid and profound Python Programming skills needed for a Python career

In , you will get the basics of the book. You will learn about this books approach to Python programming and how to get most out of it.

In , you will meet PyCharm, our IDE (Integrated Development Environment) for this book. You will learn all the basics of PyCharm and how to do debugging with it. You will also learn the base interpreter and interpreter configuration.

In , you will learn how to handle exceptions in your code. Exception Handling is one of the most important topics in programming. You will learn and practice the try-except-else-finally structure in detail.

In , you will learn Modules & Packages in Python. You will also define your custom modules and use them in your programs.

In , will see Format Operations in detail. You will learn how to format the Strings in Python. The ways will be Format Operator, String.Format, f-Strings and Template Strings.

In , you will learn the File Operations in Python. You will read and write files, delete, move and copy them, create folders and learn how to search over files & folders.

In , you will have your first project. You will work on PDF and CSV files in Python. You will read and write CSV & PDF files, create new PDFs and merge them.

In , you will have your first assignment. It is based on the PDF & CSV Project in Chapter 7 but with missing code segments in it. Dont worry, you will have the guidelines to complete the project on your own.

is on one of the main building blocks of programming which OOP. OOP stands for Object Oriented Programming and its crucial if you want to develop real world applications. You will learn and practice OOP and its core concepts in great detail.

In , you will have the second project. It is mainly on OOP concepts like classes, objects and inheritance. You will use Pythons built-in Tkinter Module and develop a Movie Library with it.

is your second assignment. This time you will try develop the Movie Library project in Chapter 10 on your own by completing the missing code segments.
