Buy Print Version

The Python Developer’s Handbook is designed to expose experienced developers

to Python and its uses. Beginning with a brief introduction to the language and its

syntax, the book moves quickly into more advanced programming topics,

including embedding Python, network programming, GUI toolkits, JPython, Web

development, Python/C API, and more. Python is an interpreted, object-oriented

programming language. Its syntax is simple and easy to learn, and it encourages

programmers to write and think clearly. The Python Developer’s Handbook is

carefully written, well-organized introduction to this powerful, fast-growing

programming language for experienced developers.

Introduction

When I was a little kid, I had this dream where a snake would rule and dominate the entire world

(actually, I guess that a penguin was also part of the dream…but never mind). I didn't pay much

attention to the fact at that time because I thought the dream was caused by an overexposure to all those

Japanese series that were popping up on the screens. Later, in my teenage years, there was this science

project where I had to spend some time studying snakes to display at an exhibition. After analyzing

Red Tail boas and coral snakes, I found this 3-year old giant of 10 feet, 40+ pounds. Instantly, I

recognized that snake as being the same one that I had seen in my dream years before. Its name was

Python, but at that time, I still couldn't figure out what was the relationship between that reptile and the

world domination.

Fifteen years ago, I was trying to select a channel in my old TV set, when a special program caught my

attention—A huge animated foot was dancing in the opening titles. After the program started, there

were a group of funny guys who were playing jokes about parrots and lumberjacks. After watching

tons of episodes and all their five films, I decided to write a book about them. I noticed that they were

called Python too. Maybe that was the answer. That troupe would dominate the entire world. I wanted

to let everyone know about it. Initially I had planned to write about the actors and their most famous

sketches, but I had to abandon the idea when I realized that my editors wouldn't give me enough time to

write a book of approximately 25,030 pages. That would be a nice bestseller, though.

Even though none of the previous facts has really happened, both have at least one thing in

common—the name Python. Python is also a scripting language whose name's origin has much to do

with the English troupe than with the legless reptile. This book will guide you step-by-step through the

universe of Python, a fantastic programming language that can help you to implement solutions for

almost all types of IT challenges that you might face. Almost all IT-related tasks, such as the

manipulation of database systems, or the design of Web-driven applications can be managed using

Python. Maybe that's the answer for my dream.

For the last couple of months, I've been trying to organize all the information about Python that I have

available, arranging them in this book. I can't say that I have included every little thing in the book, but

I do know that I have covered the most important aspects of the Python language. Note that along the 5-

month development period of this book, Python had several version upgrades, which made things way

more difficult to organize. So, I apologize if something important is missing.

This book is organized into 18 chapters and some additional appendixes, where each one covers a

specific aspect of the language. Inside each chapter, you will find many hints about how to use Python

to meet your needs. As you might agree with me, it is impossible to cover every single aspect of the

language in such a complete and up-to-date way. That's why I choose to provide Web links to other

sources of material that I think will be useful for your learning.

What this book covers?

A short answer is

The book starts with a very extensive review of the language and the modules that come as part of the

Python distribution. It goes through Object-Oriented Programming, Networking, Web Development,

Graphical Interfaces, and other important topics. The last chapter covers JPython, a version of Python

that runs in Java systems.

A long answer is

Chapter 1 explains what Python is, why Python must be used, where to get support and how to go

through each installation process.

Chapter 2 is a complete review of the Python programming language. By the end of this chapter, you

will learn how to create Python applications.

Chapter 3 shows which main modules extensions are currently available and for what purposes they

can be used. The focus here is to expand your knowledge about the Python libraries, showing the

resources that you already have available in the Python programming language.

Chapter 4 demonstrates how to handle exception situations and how to avoid error messages.

Chapter 5 introduces the OO methodology in a very complete and direct way. You will be able to

easily create and use objects and classes in your programs after reading this chapter.

Chapter 6 discusses extending and embedding Python. You will learn how to extend Python methods

using other languages and how to call Python methods from within other applications.

Chapter 7 explains objects interfacing and distribution. The information provided in this chapter

explains objects distribution and how to use them from within other systems.

Chapter 8 shows all the database options available within Python. For those that don't know anything

about database yet, it explains how databases work and how to execute basic SQL statements.

Chapter 9 provides very useful information concerning the use and manipulation of some advanced

topics, including images, sounds, threads, and scientific Python Modules.
