Congratulations! You have already read the first book of this series Try Python - for Beginners: Book 1. You wrote some Python code, not much, but you actually enjoyed it and now you want to learn more. In Book 1, you dabbled in Python using the Jupyter Notebook but you did not actually install anything on your computer. You were just giving Python a try without a lot of commitment on your part. In Book 2, I am going to show you how to install the Jupyter Notebook and all of the Python libraries you will need to get started. We will also cover certain topics on how to manage your Python installation. Let's get started!
