Description

Python’s simplicity permits you to turn into productive quickly, but this continuously means you aren’t the usage of everything it has to offer. With this hands-on guide, you’ll discover ways to write effective, idiomatic Python code by leveraging its best—and possibly most neglected—features. Creator Luciano Ramalho takes you through Python’s core language features and libraries, and shows you how to make your code shorter, faster, and more readable at the same time.

Many experienced programmers try to bend Python to fit patterns they learned from other languages, and never discover Python features out of doors of their experience. With this book, those Python programmers will thoroughly discover ways to turn into proficient in Python 3.

This book covers:

  • Python data model: remember how special methods are the key to the consistent behavior of objects
  • Data structures: take full advantage of built-in types, and remember the text vs bytes duality in the Unicode age
  • Functions as objects: view Python functions as first-class objects, and remember how this affects popular design patterns
  • Object-oriented idioms: build classes by learning about references, mutability, interfaces, operator overloading, and a couple of inheritance
  • Control waft: leverage context managers, generators, coroutines, and concurrency with the concurrent.futures and asyncio packages
  • Metaprogramming: remember how properties, attribute descriptors, class decorators, and metaclasses work
