Información de la editorial

Sure, it's one thing to use Windows. But understanding the guts of computing-the source code-gives you a higher level of control. In an age when all the world runs on computers, few fields are as important and useful as programming, and few languages are as interactive and easy to learn as Python. Designed to make computer science in general, and programming in particular, more accessible and exciting to learners, this introduction to computing is ideal for those with little prior experience. A paper companion to the "Python First" digital pack from studypack.com, the complete digital pack featuring detailed e-texts, a wealth of detailed self-guided labs that learners can complete on their own, sample programs, extensive quizzes, and slides, this workbook offers a printed version of all e-texts and self-guided labs from the "Python First" digital pack. All e-texts and labs are published in the same format as they appear in the digital pack. Are you a learner who wishes - or needs - to pursue a "Python First" course of study? If you are and if you enjoy traditional books, then this "Python First" printed companion is for you. To learn more of "Python First," please visit the Study Pack site at http: //studypack.com.
