If you’re ready to write better Python code and use more advanced features, Advanced Python Programming was written for you. Brian Overland and John Bennett distill advanced topics down to their essentials, illustrating them with simple examples and practical exercises.
Building on Overland’s widely-praised approach in Python Without Fear, the authors start with short, simple examples designed for easy entry, and quickly ramp you up to creating useful utilities and games, and using Python to solve interesting puzzles. Everything you’ll need to know is patiently explained and clearly illustrated, and the authors illuminate the design decisions and tricks behind each language feature they cover. You’ll gain the in-depth understanding to successfully apply all these advanced features and techniques:

Coding for runtime efficiency
Lambda functions (and when to use them)
Managing versioning
Localization and Unicode
Regular expressions
Binary operators
Radix conversions
Data formatting, in depth
Creating, building, and importing packages
Using the Django web-development package
Graphics programming
Magic methods and advanced object orientation
Reading and writing binary files, and more

Brian Overland is a textbook author, sometime actor, programmer, film reviewer, and novelist.
