A project-based approach to learning Python for beginners.



Real World Python is a collection of worked projects for readers who know some basic Python and want to do something with their knowledge. The book's short projects all teach thought processes and problem-solving as well as coding syntax. Readers learn to think their way through challenges like predicting the location of sailors lost at sea, discovering new planets, determining the author of a novel, selecting candidate landing sites for a Mars rover, programming a robot sentry gun to detect and shoot aliens (not humans), and more.
