Python Practice Lab will be an essential resource for anyone who wants to learn to program, instructors teaching Python to beginners, and students who want to supplement their coursework by building complete and functional programs. Uses natural language and text strings rather than math as the main building blocks for learning about program structure Rewrites code comprehension exercises in equivalent code with inclusive and approachable variables rather than terse, single-letter variables Challenges readers to write a full program in each chapter Presents a selection of projects at the end of the book that integrates the concepts introduced in previous chapters
