Publisher's Summary:
Even though there are several great tutorials on some Python websites, in addition to many books, my emphasis will be on the practical features of the language. It won't go into the history of the language or the esoteric ways it can be used. It will help if you have programmed before, or at least can understand programming logic and program flow. I will try to make sure things start out slow so you don't get confused.
My goal is to present programming in a fun, friendly manner so you will have the desire to learn more.

Confusing English Interferes with Getting to the Programming
I may be missing something, but the sentences and English are strange and confusing. Start with the subtitle," Learn How to Write Codes." Then move on to the first sentence in the introduction, "I initially needed to learn Python in light of the fact that I needed to make a computer diversion." What is a computer "diversion"? Here is another sentence from the introduction, "I never thought I took in a language all around ok to feel good utilizing it, significantly less really appreciate programming." I think I might be able to figure what is meant, but in reading a book about programming, I shouldn't find the English to be more challenging than the programming language. Here is another sentence, again from Page 1. "To give me more motivation to take in the language, I chose to recreate a pretending diversion from my adolescence as a PC amusement." Finally, one last sentence, "Python is likewise viewed as an abnormal state language, importance it deals with a considerable measure of the snort work included in programming." Given that this is a book that is suppose to introduce people to programming, the language should not be getting into the way of its presentation. I assume that the author understands their material, and if we were in a room discussing the topic, I would get the English use, but as it currently stands, there are too many other books seeking to do the same thing that read much more easily.
Codes? Not The Best First Impression
Can't say much for the content of this book as i'm just browsing around a bit... but as a seasoned senior developer of 20+ years who works in C/C++ and Python i can tell you that no experienced programmer refers to computer source code in the plural with the word "codes". In the real world it's always the "lines of code", or "lets take a look at the code", or "copy the source code over to this usb stick". It is never the plural CODES. A more proper sub-title for the book would've been "Learning How To Write Code". The only people I've ever heard who use the plural in this way were non-computer people. This may in fact be a decent read but any programming book that has "codes" in its title makes me very suspect of its quality.
