Python Programming: An Introduction to Computer Science, 3rd Edition Pdf Book Description:

This third version of John Zelle’s Python Programming continues the tradition of upgrading the text to reflect new technology while keeping a time-tested method of teaching introductory computer science. A significant change for this edition is that the elimination of the majority of applications of eval and also the addition of a conversation of its own dangers. In our increasingly connected world, it is never too early to start considering computer security problems. This variant also utilizes several new images illustrations, developed during chapters 4-12.

Inspection, Disguised as a Python textbook, it’s actually an introduction to the fine art of programming, with Python just as the favored medium for novices. This is the way I’ve always imagined Python will be useful in education: less the sole language, but as a primary language, as in art one may begin learning how to draw with a pencil instead of attempting to paint in acrylic straight away. Zelle’s publication introduces Python and computer science concepts in a fashion that beginning students find attractive and simple to comprehend. –Dave Reed, Capital University
