Python GUI Programming Cookbook. Use recipes to develop responsive and powerful GUIs using Tkinter - Second Edition

Burkhard Meier

Python is a multi-domain, interpreted programming language. It is a widely used general-purpose, high-level programming language. It is often used as a scripting language because of its forgiving syntax and compatibility with a wide variety of different eco-systems. Python GUI Programming Cookbook follows a task-based approach to help you create beautiful and very effective GUIs with the least amount of code necessary.This book will guide you through the very basics of creating a fully functional GUI in Python with only a few lines of code. Each and every recipe adds more widgets to the GUIs we are creating. While the cookbook recipes all stand on their own, there is a common theme running through all of them. As our GUIs keep expanding, using more and more widgets, we start to talk to networks, databases, and graphical libraries that greatly enhance our GUI’s functionality. This book is what you need to expand your knowledge on the subject of GUIs, and make sure you’re not missing out in the long run.

Python GUI Programming with Tkinter. Design and build functional and user-friendly GUI applications - Second Edition

Alan D. Moore

Tkinter is widely used to build GUIs in Python due to its simplicity. In this book, you’ll discover Tkinter’s strengths and overcome its challenges as you learn to develop fully featured GUI applications.Python GUI Programming with Tkinter, Second Edition, will not only provide you with a working knowledge of the Tkinter GUI library, but also a valuable set of skills that will enable you to plan, implement, and maintain larger applications. You’ll build a full-blown data entry application from scratch, learning how to grow and improve your code in response to continually changing user and business needs. You’ll develop a practical understanding of tools and techniques used to manage this evolving codebase and go beyond the default Tkinter widget capabilities. You’ll implement version control and unit testing, separation of concerns through the MVC design pattern, and object-oriented programming to organize your code more cleanly.You’ll also gain experience with technologies often used in workplace applications, such as SQL databases, network services, and data visualization libraries. Finally, you’ll package your application for wider distribution and tackle the challenge of maintaining cross-platform compatibility.

Python GUI programming with Tkinter. Develop responsive and powerful GUI applications with Tkinter

Alan D. Moore

Tkinter is a lightweight, portable, and easy-to-use graphical toolkit available in the Python Standard Library, widely used to build Python GUIs due to its simplicity and availability. This book teaches you to design and build graphical user interfaces that are functional, appealing, and user-friendly using the powerful combination of Python and Tkinter.After being introduced to Tkinter, you will be guided step-by-step through the application development process. Over the course of the book, your application will evolve from a simple data-entry form to a complex data management and visualization tool while maintaining a clean and robust design. In addition to building the GUI, you'll learn how to connect to external databases and network resources, test your code to avoid errors, and maximize performance using asynchronous programming. You'll make the most of Tkinter's cross-platform availability by learning how to maintain compatibility, mimic platform-native look and feel, and build executables for deployment across popular computing platforms.By the end of this book, you will have the skills and confidence to design and build powerful high-end GUI applications to solve real-world problems.

Python High Performance. Build high-performing, concurrent, and distributed applications - Second Edition

Dr. Gabriele Lanaro

Python is a versatile language that has found applications in many industries. The clean syntax, rich standard library, and vast selection of third-party libraries make Python a wildly popular language. Python High Performance is a practical guide that shows how to leverage the power of both native and third-party Python libraries to build robust applications. The book explains how to use various profilers to find performance bottlenecks and apply the correct algorithm to fix them. The reader will learn how to effectively use NumPy and Cython to speed up numerical code. The book explains concepts of concurrent programming and how to implement robust and responsive applications using Reactive programming. Readers will learn how to write code for parallel architectures using Tensorflow and Theano, and use a cluster of computers for large-scale computations using technologies such as Dask and PySpark. By the end of the book, readers will have learned to achieve performance and scale from their Python applications.

Python Illustrated. Not another boring Python book, learn programming the fun way

Maaike van Putten, Imke van Putten

This is not your average Python programming book, because the world doesn’t need another one of those. Instead, it’s an illustrated, fun, and hands-on guide that treats learning Python like the adventure it should be. It’s designed especially for beginners who want to understand how code works without getting overwhelmed. You’ll be guided by a cheeky, know-it-all cat who’s surprisingly good at teaching Python from scratch. Don’t worry about going through it alone; a slightly moody dachshund dog is your study buddy, learning right alongside you. Each chapter introduces a core programming concept, explains it with a playful twist, and reinforces it through human-friendly examples, analogies, and exercises. Whether you’re a software professional or someone who’s never written a single line of code, this book will help you build real Python coding skills… and even enjoy the process (shocking, right?). Forget dry tutorials and walls of text. Python Illustrated speaks to visual learners, creative thinkers, cat lovers, dog lovers, and anyone who prefers their learning with a dash of humor. From writing your first function to understanding object-oriented programming, you’ll build a solid foundation in Python (without the usual headaches).
