Gerrard Paul. Lean Python: Learn Just Enough Python to Build Useful Tools

Apress, 2016. — 87 р. — ISBN: 978-1-4842-2384-0.Learn only the essential aspects of Python without cluttering up your mind with features you may never use. This compact book is not a "best way to write code" type of book; rather, the author goes over his most-used functions, which are all you need to know as a beginner and some way beyond.
Lean Python takes 58 Python methods and functions and whittles them down to 15: as author Paul Gerrard says, "I haven't found a need for the rest."What You'll LearnDiscover lean Python and how to learn just enough to build useful tools
