Start Your Journey The Right Way

Python is a broad subject. There is a lot to learn. Engineering is the same way. This book was written to provide you with the essentials of the Python landscape, a road map for what you need to know. This is not an exhaustive code library of examples or technical jargon. This is your first step into a new world of technical proficiency. Do it the right way, within the context of what’s truly relevant to your profession. Avoid the pitfalls and focus on the things that matter.
