Summary: "The Python Book looks to meet the needs of those who work with data but do not have experience of using Python. The aim of this book is to be able to teach somebody with no programming experience how to program in Python and be able to apply their skills to data analysis tasks. With Python being such a general purpose language, it is easy for any introductory text to concentrate on areas that are not useful to individuals who are really interested in data analysis. This book will be much more focused on what is important and why. This book looks to build the readers skills up at a slower pace with the focus on understanding why you do things the way you do. The aim at the end is not just for the reader to be able to do data analysis in Python but to understand why you would use a certain approach."-- Provided by publisher.
