About this listen
Functional Programming and Comprehensions
Functional programming is a somewhat hidden aspect of Python. Though it supports many of the functional constructs, the style is not widely adopted. On the flip side, functional programming appears to be making a resurgence because of the benefits it can provide.
Comprehensions are an alternative Pythonic construct for programming in a similar manner. These are features of Python that are commonly used instead of their functional counterparts. This book covers:
- List comprehensions
- Generator expressions
- Set comprehensions
- Dict comprehensions
Write Python code like the masters
These constructs, while not necessary per se, allow you to be more succinct, reuse code, and think about code in a different way. You will learn:
- How the constructs work
- When to use them
- Real-life examples from the standard library
- To understand other' 'code
This book covers many of these intermediate constructs that are available in Python. The book covers both Python 2 and 3. Topics include:
- Functional programming
- List comprehensions
- Generator expressions
- Set and dict comprehensions

Bible of Python Programming is an introduction to the Python programming language, which is becoming increasingly popular. Python is an object-oriented scripting language that is interpreted and interactive. Python is becoming more popular as a result of: It is compatible with all major platforms, It is open-source software that is copyrighted but freely usable, and its simple object-oriented interface makes it an excellent prototyping tool for C++ developers.

Lots of robotic code reading
Really hard to impossible to follow code readings. I would need the paper book to understand much of the later chapters.
Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
