There are many good books to learn how to code in Python. However, most books and courses show you how it's done and move on to the next topic. This book is different. It not only shows you how it's done, it will explain why it's done this way and how it works. This additional inside is going to make a difference in you being an average programmer or being a really good one!

Many coding books lose much of their usefulness after you learn the concepts they have to teach you. But recipe books are great because they become permanent references. When you want to do something specific, you can go right to it. Sometimes I just browse them to see if there is any code that triggers an idea or to run into something I never thought of doing. And this book has more than 130 recipes in my favorite programming language.

The review covers the third edition of Modern Python Cookbook. This book is not necessarily for the first-time Python user, but if you have some previous experience, this book is the one you want in your collection. It starts with simple Python lessons about numbers, strings, and tuples then progresses into functions, lists, dictionaries, and how to create classes. The chapter about graphics and visualization using the Jupyter notebook was a nice touch. The book is easy to follow and the examples are extremely helpful. I highly recommend this book.
