Summary
Provides information on how to program in Python, including program development, the basics of using classes and objects, 2-D geometry, fractals, animations, recursion, and problem solving.
"Whether you're under 20 or just a teenager at heart, this book will introduce you to computer programming. You can use it in a classroom or on your own. The only assumption is that you know how to use a modern computer system with a keyboard, screen, and mouse. To make your learning experience fun and interesting, you will write programs that draw pictures on the screen and allow you to interact with them by using the mouse. Along the way, you will learn the basic principles of program design and problem solving with computers. You will then be able to apply these ideas and techniques to solve problems in almost any area of study."--Introduction
