Fluent Python: Clear, Concise, and Effective Programming
€œEach item in Slatkin€s Effective Python teaches a self-contained lesson with its own source code. This makes the book random-access: Items are easy to browse and study in whatever order the reader needs. I will be recommending Effective Python to students as an admirably compact source of mainstream advice on a very broad range of topics for the intermediate Python programmer.€Â

It€s easy to start coding with Python, which is why the language is so popular. However, Python€s unique strengths, charms, and expressiveness can be hard to grasp, and there are hidden pitfalls that can easily trip you up.
Â
Effective Python will help you master a truly €œPythonic€ approach to programming, harnessing Python€s full power to write exceptionally robust and well-performing code. Using the concise, scenario-driven style pioneered in Scott Meyers€ best-selling Effective C++, Brett Slatkin brings together 59 Python best practices, tips, and shortcuts, and explains them with realistic code examples.
Â
Drawing on years of experience building Python infrastructure at Google, Slatkin uncovers little-known quirks and idioms that powerfully impact code behavior and performance. You€ll learn the best way to accomplish key tasks, so you can write code that€s easier to understand, maintain, and improve.
