Lepszy kod w Pythonie. Przewodnik dla aspirujących ekspertów
David Mertz
Wyjdź poza kod Pythona, który "w dużej mierze działa", do kodu, który jest ekspresyjny, solidny i wydajny Python jest zapewne najczęściej używanym językiem programowania na świecie, od nauczania w szkołach podstawowych, przez codzienne tworzenie stron internetowych, aż po najbardziej zaawansowane badania naukowe. Choć każde zadanie w Pythonie można wykonać na wiele różnych sposobów, niektóre z nich są błędne, nieeleganckie lub nieefektywne. Lepszy kod w Pythonie to przewodnik po programowaniu "pythonicznym", zbiór najlepszych praktyk, technik i niuansów, które łatwo przeoczyć, zwłaszcza gdy mamy nawyki zapożyczone z innych języków programowania. Autor David Mertz prezentuje konkretne i zwięzłe przykłady rozmaitych nieporozumień, pułapek i złych nawyków. Wyjaśnia, dlaczego niektóre praktyki są lepsze od innych, bazując na swoim ponad 25-letnim doświadczeniu jako uznany członek społeczności Pythona. Rozdziały ułożone są w kolejności rosnącej według stopnia zaawansowania, a każdy z nich szczegółowo omawia powiązane grupy pojęć. Nie ma znaczenia, czy dopiero zaczynasz pracę z Pythonem, czy też jesteś doświadczonym deweloperem przesuwającym granice swojego kodu w Pythonie. Ta książka jest dla każdego, kto chce być bardziej pythoniczny pisząc lepszy kod w języku Python. Dr David Mertz od ponad 25 lat jest członkiem społeczności Pythona i uczył Pythona naukowców, deweloperów z doświadczeniem w innych językach, a także początkujących programistów. David przez sześć lat był dyrektorem organizacji Python Software Foundation (PSF) i nadal przewodniczy lub należy do różnych grup roboczych PSF. Jest autorem kilku książek technicznych i wygłaszał wykłady na licznych międzynarodowych konferencjach programistycznych. "Moje wysokie oczekiwania wobec tej wciągającej książki o Pythonie zostały przekroczone: oferuje ona mnóstwo cennych informacji dla średnich i zaawansowanych programistów pozwalając im udoskonalić swoje umiejętności w Pythonie, obszernie dzieli się cennym doświadczeniem związanym z wykorzystywaniem i nauczaniem języka, a przy tym jest zwięzła, łatwa w czytaniu i pisana stylem konwersacyjnym. Alex Martelli Używaj właściwego rodzaju pętli w Pythonie Poznaj tajniki obiektów zmiennych i niezmiennych Uzyskaj porady od ekspertów w celu uniknięcia kłopotów w Pythonie Zbadaj zaawansowane tematy dotyczące Pythona Poruszaj się po "atrakcyjnych uciążliwościach", które istnieją w Pythonie Poznaj najbardziej przydatne struktury danych w Pythonie i dowiedz się, jak uniknąć ich niewłaściwego wykorzystywania Unikaj błędów związanych z bezpieczeństwem Poznaj podstawy obliczeń numerycznych, w tym liczby zmiennoprzecinkowe i numeryczne typy danych
