Preface

Python is the preferred choice of developers, engineers, data scientists, and hobbyists everywhere. It is a great scripting language that can power your applications and provide great speed, safety, and scalability. By exposing Python as a series of simple recipes, you can gain insights into specific language features in a particular context. Having a tangible context helps make the language or standard library feature easier to understand.

This book takes a recipe-based approach, where each recipe addresses specific problems and issues.
