- swaroop 17y agoZed, I've written a beginner's book called 'A Byte of Python', and I'd like to know your opinion about it - http://www.swaroopch.com/notes/Python http://www.swaroopch.com/notes/Python FWIW, the background is that it has been under a Creative Commons license since 2004, it has had about half a million downloads/readers (guesstimate, of course), is used as a text book for introductory programming courses in at least 8 universities worldwide, and has been translated to at least 5-6 languages by volunteers.
- zedshaw 17y agoInteresting, it does look like a decent book. Also, it looks like you've targeted Python 3. Seems well written so far based on what I've read in a few chapters. I'm building a list of free books for people to move onto after they finish mine. I'll put yours in the list.
