Mastering Basic Algorithms in the Python Language

This book explores ways to apply the Python programming language in common application domains and realistically scaled tasks. It’s about what you can do with the language once you’ve mastered its fundamentals. This book assumes you are relatively new to each of the application domains it covers— GUIs, the Internet, databases, systems programming, and so on—and presents each from the ground up, in tutorial fashion. Along the way, it focuses on commonly used tools and libraries, rather than language fundamentals. The net result is a resource that provides readers with an in-depth understanding of Python’s roles in practical, realworld programming work.

“The simplified yet deep level of detail, comprehensive coverage of material,and informative historical references make this book perfect for the classroom... An easy read, with complex examples presented simply, and greathistorical references rarely found in such books. Awesome!”

Perl is a versatile, powerful programming language used in a variety of disciplines, ranging from system administration to web programming to database manipulation. One slogan of Perl is that it makes easy things easy and hard things possible. Intermediate Perl is about making the leap from the easy things to the hard ones. Originally released in 2003 as Learning Perl Objects, References, and Modules and revised and updated for Perl 5.8, this book offers a gentle but thorough introduction to intermediate programming in Perl. Written by the authors of the best-selling Learning Perl, it picks up where that book left off. Topics include: Packages and namespaces References and scoping Manipulating complex data structures Object-oriented programming Writing and using modules Testing Perl code Contributing to CPAN Following the successful format of Learning Perl, we designed each chapter in the book to be small enough to be read in just an hour or two, ending with a series of exercises to help you practice what you've learned. To use the book, you just need to be familiar with the material in Learning Perl and have ambition to go further. Perl is a different language to different people. It is a quick scripting tool for some, and a fully-featured object-oriented language for others. It is used for everything from performing quick global replacements on text files, to crunching huge, complex sets of scientific data that take weeks to process. Perl is what you make of it. But regardless of what you use Perl for, this book helps you do it more effectively, efficiently, and elegantly. Intermediate Perl is about learning to use Perl as a programming language, and not just a scripting language. This is the book that turns the Perl dabbler into the Perl programmer.
