Python Crash Course is the worlds bestselling programming book, with over 1,500,000 copies sold to date!

Python Crash Course is the worlds best-selling guide to the Python programming language. This fast-paced, thorough introduction will have you writing programs, solving problems, and developing functioning applications in no time.

Youll start by learning basic programming concepts, such as variables, lists, classes, and loops, and practice writing clean code with exercises for each topic. Youll also learn how to make your programs interactive and test your code safely before adding it to a project. Youll put your new knowledge into practice by creating a Space Invadersinspired arcade game, building a set of data visualizations with Pythons handy libraries, and deploying a simple application online.

As you work through the book, youll learn how to:

Use powerful Python libraries and tools, including pytest, Pygame, Matplotlib, Plotly, and Django
Make increasingly complex 2D games that respond to keypresses and mouse clicks
Generate interactive data visualizations using a variety of datasets
Build apps that allow users to create accounts and manage their own data, and deploy your apps online
Troubleshoot coding errors and solve common programming problems

New to this edition: This third edition is completely revised to reflect the latest in Python code. New and updated coverage includes VS Code for text editing, the pathlib module for file handling, pytest for testing your code, as well as the latest features of Matplotlib, Plotly, and Django.

If youve been thinking about digging into programming, Python Crash Course will provide you with the skills to write real programs fast. Why wait any longer? Start your engines and code!
