Overview

If you have ever thought about trying a new programming language like Python but didn't want to go through the effort of installing the software or didn't even know where to start, then this book is written just for you. I mean, it sounds like a good idea and it would probably look good on your resume but really, who wants to go through all that work? Nevertheless, I know you are interested in learning Python and I'm here to make that process as simple as possible. This book is going to cover the software you can start using today without needing to install anything on your computer. And while we are at it, we will also write some Python code but not too much.
