- Variables: The recipe of our Py-thon! Let’s put all our ingredients in!
- PythonObjects: How many times you had to separate ingredients in different bowls, to assemble the after? Let’s figure this out!
- Polymorphism: Which “Py” do we want today? Learn the differences between assembling the “Py” and getting a “Py” in different flavors!
- Conditionals and flows: Describing the steps of your recipe! Let’s bake it!
- Loops: More than a single “Py”? I’ve got you covered!

About pricing
- It works as a very first step into Python programming, thus specifically aimed at first-time programmers. Nonetheless, it embraces all the main concepts needed to really understand the code you will write.
- Writing a book takes a lot of work, months if not years, but let's do things right. Hence, I decided to keep the minimum price low (the cost of a nice coffee). So that also students can easily afford it for a reference guide.
If you enjoy my books and you want to support my writing, you have several options:
- Leanpub pricing strategy, so you can really pick any price you want, appreciate your support!
- go a step further in your knowledge and skills with Code Reviews 101 or any other of my writings.
Meanwhile, hope you will enjoy!
