Automate the Boring Stuff with Python: Review | Learn Python with this complete python course

Dont be too hard on thy selves, They say with age comes wisdom 😂.

This book popped up of something of interest in my library of recommendations. Your video helped me make the choice to get this book. Thank you!

This is a really good book if you have progressed beyond print("Hello World").

Thank you sir

Kinda late to the party, but what should I get: this or the crash course. I know something more than basics about some programming languages as I took them in high school, and would like to get into python. Which one should I get?

Scrolled Al Sweigart's Twitter feed to get a sense of who he is and he's completely nuts. Guy is off the rails.

Hey guys I'm a beginner here so I'm sorry for the noob question.
The book says to download Mu. I already have Anaconda Navigator & PyCharm.
Could I use either of these programs to follow the book instead of downloading Mu?

Greetings, so I was able to install the version of the python from the main company (python.org), my question is why some people are selling it for $500-$600 while I am able to get it for free and complete version with no expiration in the date?

The fact that you stated, "you probably don't know what you're doing, you just copied a bunch of code from somewhere and it does what you want it to do," described exactly why I was fishing for a good python book in the first place. This even contains all of the beginner material from my programing class (in the book), Thanks for the book review and how easy and straight to the point you got.

Thanks for best suggestions

I almost bought this book today. Instead I picked up: Mission Python: Code A Space Adventure Game by Sean McManus & Python Flash Cards (Eric Matthes ; no starch press). Also have Learn Python the Hard Way 3rd Edition.

Guess I'll be going back to the book store to get this one.

You can download that books from there
Pdfdrive website for free

Totally agree been learning python for 3 weeks now,
Only got the book 3 days ago and already learnt a massive amount of information.

Yes

I don't know which one should buy Python Crash Course, 2nd Edition: A Hands-On, Project-Based Introduction to Programming || Automate the Boring Stuff with Python: Practical Programming for Total Beginners ?

So is this book recommended for the complete beginner , with no coding experience?

Its first part?

I would like to thank you for your recommendations. I am currently going through this book and Think Python because of your videos and they are great free resources to learn Python.

is it still relevant today

It costs RS.2350/-
Available in Flipkart

Any advice for a book or a course to take after this?

Should i use this book and crash course in python for starting learning python or any other book
Please tell

Sir, I have the book. What you think this book is enough for a new python learner?

Great video, mate!

This book is so cute.

what first? crash course or automating the boring stuff? hehe

will this book be enough to help me get started with machine learning as far as python side is considered

SOLD! Thank you for review :)

I am waiting for c++ book

IIRC, Al's web scraping was a great read! I also used PYTHON FOR KIDS by Jason R. Briggs. Not embarrassed to say I was in my mid-twenties. Ashamed to say I did once offend someone who was new to Python and requested help.

Thanks for sharing, best you update the amazon link to the UK, a lot more appealing to UK buyers.

Can you please make a video telling us what to do next after finishing 'Automate the boring stuff with Python' Book, especially i wanna be working in the AI and ML field, so any advice ??

Which python is it based on ? 2 or 3

I bought "Learn Python"(Allen B.Downey) and i am not pleased very much as a beginner,i should buy this book from video.

Great review, I'll start reading the online version of this book, I've already completed a python course at codecademy, but I think that reading this book will be very useful.

What beginner book would recommend for someone interested in game development ?

Torn between this and learn python 3 the hard way? Need help

Hi. Im new to Python and have received Python Crash Course from a colleague of my dad. Im quite interested in machine learning and i know you have said in some previous comments that you think automate the boring stuff is better. Do you recommend I buy that book instead or I just start with crash course. Thanks!

Thankyou :)
I want to start learning python for data science. Do you still think this is the book to go for that?

hey had some queries in simplegui

You're right .this is a best book for beginner .

among the four books which one will you recommend for python beginner?

I am in the middle of it. Very interesting book. Recommend to anyone interested in automating process. Te book is good for beginners. I am learning python from this book.

I really like your channel. Instant "Subscribe" .
Maybe use a camera stand or make one at home and your videos will look so much more professional.

Can I ask that which one is better between automate the boring stuff with python and python crash course?

This book is free online as an ebook.

Sold!

Hi Mr Flick first i want to thank you for these great videos and i wish u could recommend a resource for me to learn OOP IN python i find it kind of hard thing to understand classes in python and i cant afford to by a book from amazon cause i live in baghdad and its expensive to get one ; the python crash course costs 58 $ to reach my house

I would like to see a bad review for a bad book. I enjoy your reviews, but they're all so damn positive. Where be the fire and brimstone?!

don't forget the awesome udemy video course made from this book!!
