Hi,
I need your advice about Python book. I consider buying: “Python Tricks: A Buffet of Awesome Python Features”. Any recommendation about this book, it is helpful? And second question, that I should read any other book before that one? Thanks for your help :)
I’ve read a ton of software engineering books and python specific books and haven’t found any of them to be any better than just reading the online documentation about the standard library. https://docs.python.org/3/library/index.html
There are a bunch of books I would recommend if you just want to read and grow yourself as a software developer. But if your goal is to better understand what you can do with python and how, you can’t really get better than the standard library documentation.
At a bare minimum I would expect that anyone who calls themselves familiar with Python to know the table of contents of the page I linked, even if you don’t know all the components in each section. But for any given problem you should know where in the Python docs you can go to learn more about the broad area of solutions.
Out of that, I specifically recommend doing a deeper dive into the following modules:
Thanks a lot for your answer. I always look forward to learn about software development. Could you recommend any book to be better software engineer? I working with Python on backend and my question is connected with it :)
