Optimized for life scientists without previous experience in programming, this fun book teaches essential programming skills for those who want -- or need -- to write their own bioinformatics software tools, using the Python programming language freely available from the Web.
This first introductory book designed to train novice programmers is based on a student course taught by the author, and has been optimized for biology students without previous experience in programming.By interspersing theory chapters with numerous small and large programming exercises, the author quickly shows readers how to do their own programming, and throughout uses anecdotes and real-life examples from the biosciences to 'spice up' the text.This practical book thus teaches essential programming skills for life scientists who want -- or need -- to write their own bioinformatics software tools.

Rüdiger-Marcus Flaig studied Biology at the University of Heidelberg (Germany) where he obtained a Sc.D. degree, followed by a Ph.D. degree from the German Cancer Research Center. After postdoctoral work at the Universities of Gießen and Heidelberg he trained as a patent attorney and is now handling biotech patent applications for the European Patent Office in Munich. From 2003 to 2005 he developed and repeatedly taught a course on bioinformatics programming for biology students.
