The Self-Taught Programmer by Cory Althoff
This product was recommended by Anzhela Vonarkh from The Word Point
This book is certainly not intended for experienced programmers but is written and organized well for those new to the subject. It offers a good primer on python and basic programming fundamentals. Topics range from the basics about primitives to lightly touching a variety of things on algorithms, design, testing, and eventually team coding. If you’re looking for a book you can skim through to pick up miniature lessons on important subjects, this is it. Take notes, learn everything you can from the book, and then move on to areas you felt like you were weak with.
