Python 3 is the best version of the language
yet: It is more powerful, convenient, consistent, and expressive than
ever before. Now, leading Python programmer Mark Summerfield
demonstrates how to write code that takes full advantage of Python 3’s
features and idioms. The first book written from a completely “Python
3” viewpoint, Programming in Python 3 brings together
all the knowledge you need to write any program, use any standard or
third-party Python 3 library, and create new library modules of your
own.

Summerfield
draws on his many years of Python experience to share deep insights
into Python 3 development you won’t find anywhere else. He begins by
illuminating Python’s “beautiful heart”: the eight key elements of
Python you need to write robust, high-performance programs. Building on
these core elements, he introduces new topics designed to strengthen
your practical expertise–one concept and hands-on example at a time.
