In the last lesson, we installed Python and got set up. Today, we?fre going to cover quite a bit, as we learn the essentials. We?fll review variables, operators, and then finish up by learning about control structures to manage the flow of your data. http://www.tutorialhero.com/tutorial-80074-python_from_scratch_variables_data_types_and_control_structur.php http://www.tutorialhero.com/tutorial-79510-python_3.1_string_and_quotes.php In this second part of a three-part series that introduces you to Python, you'll learn about the importance of strings, how they work, and why Python uses three different kinds of quote marks. It is excerpted from the book Beginning Python: Using Python 2.6 and Python 3.1,, written by James Payne, http://www.tutorialhero.com/tutorial-79510-python_3.1_string_and_quotes.php http://www.tutorialhero.com/tutorial-78933-testing_in_python_using_doctest.php In this article by Greg Lee Turnquist, author of Python Testing Cookbook, we will cover: ?Coding a test harness for doctest ?Filtering out test noise ?Testing the edges ?Testing corner cases by iteration ?Getting nosy with doctest http://www.tutorialhero.com/tutorial-78933-testing_in_python_using_doctest.php http://www.tutorialhero.com/tutorial-78932-python_using_doctest_for_documentation.php Python provides the useful ability to embed comments inside functions that are accessible from a Python shell. These are known as docstrings. A docstring provides the ability to embed not only information, but also code samples that are runnable.In this article, we will explore different ways to use doctest to develop documentation. In this article by Greg Lee Turnquist, author of Python Testing Cookbook, we will cover: ?Documenting the basics ?Catching stack traces ?Running doctests from the command line ?Printing out all your documentation including a status report http://www.tutorialhero.com/tutorial-78932-python_using_doctest_for_documentation.php http://www.tutorialhero.com/tutorial-78934-python_from_scratch_getting_started.php In this first lesson, we?re going to choose a version, install Python, and then create the obligatory ?Hello world? script. If you?re already familiar with Python, feel free to skip ahead to a later lesson in the series. http://www.tutorialhero.com/tutorial-78934-python_from_scratch_getting_started.php http://www.tutorialhero.com/tutorial-75751-[detailed_guide]_programming_and_you_.php This is an old guide I made about a year or so ago and today I have decided to clean it up a bit and make it better. This guide should go according to Python 2.6. I would update this guide but, I have not used Python since (Anyone wanting to alter this guide and make it compatible for 3.0 is welcome. Send me a PM with the changes and I will include credits). http://www.tutorialhero.com/tutorial-75751-[detailed_guide]_programming_and_you_.php http://www.tutorialhero.com/tutorial-75752-printing_text_in_python.php This is a simple tutorial going over the most basic way of printing text in Python. For this tutorial I am using Python 2.6.4. You can get Python here. http://www.tutorialhero.com/tutorial-75752-printing_text_in_python.php http://www.tutorialhero.com/tutorial-75753-learning_python_part_5_(modules).php Modules are a fantastic and easy tool to start using. They speed up the coding progress considerably if you're able to find the right modules. An example of this is a module i've been using alot recently, Pygame. What this module allows you to do is easy 2d game making. These modules are made to ease programming in python. http://www.tutorialhero.com/tutorial-75753-learning_python_part_5_(modules).php http://www.tutorialhero.com/tutorial-75754-learning_python_part_4_(a_look_at_functions).php Let's start of with a simple function What this does is it defines the function add(). a and b are parameters that are requested http://www.tutorialhero.com/tutorial-75754-learning_python_part_4_(a_look_at_functions).php http://www.tutorialhero.com/tutorial-75755-learning_python_part_3_(lists_dictionaries_and_tuples).php In this tutorial i will try my best to go over lists, dictionaries and tuple. All of these are really powerful and shouldn't be looked over as they provide really useful tools that will speed up the coding process considerably. Let's get started then. http://www.tutorialhero.com/tutorial-75755-learning_python_part_3_(lists_dictionaries_and_tuples).php http://www.tutorialhero.com/tutorial-75760-developing_a_basic_irc_bot_with_python.php Ok here is My Attempt at a Python IRC Bot Tutorial. http://www.tutorialhero.com/tutorial-75760-developing_a_basic_irc_bot_with_python.php http://www.tutorialhero.com/tutorial-75757-learning_python_part_1_(getting_started_and_first_program).php part 1 Getting started and first program Installing python: To get started on using python you have to install an interpreter.... http://www.tutorialhero.com/tutorial-75757-learning_python_part_1_(getting_started_and_first_program).php http://www.tutorialhero.com/tutorial-75763-python_on_google_app_engine_creating_blog_engine._part_2.php In last part we configured very basic Flask application for Google App Engine. In this part we will add some models and forms to our application. Let's start with model Post which represents blog post. Create file blogmodels.py: http://www.tutorialhero.com/tutorial-75763-python_on_google_app_engine_creating_blog_engine._part_2.php http://www.tutorialhero.com/tutorial-75761-learning_pygame(simple_2d)_part_3_recognizing_clicks.php Now that you have a screen we need to do some work on the clicking a square and displaying the result. So far we have: http://www.tutorialhero.com/tutorial-75761-learning_pygame(simple_2d)_part_3_recognizing_clicks.php http://www.tutorialhero.com/tutorial-75764-printing_text_in_python_part_2.php This tutorial will build on what you learned in Printing Text in Python - Part 1. For this tutorial I am using Python 2.6.4. You can get Python here. For instructions on opening up the Python IDLE, please see Part 1 of this tutorial. http://www.tutorialhero.com/tutorial-75764-printing_text_in_python_part_2.php http://www.tutorialhero.com/tutorial-75765-learning_pygame(simple_2d)_part_4_displaying_x__o__status.php Now that we have our basics of clicking and a basic screen, let's display some characters! Right now we have: http://www.tutorialhero.com/tutorial-75765-learning_pygame(simple_2d)_part_4_displaying_x__o__status.php http://www.tutorialhero.com/tutorial-75766-learning_pygame(simple_2d)_part_1.php To start out with, Pygame is a simple 2d game library for Python. http://www.tutorialhero.com/tutorial-75766-learning_pygame(simple_2d)_part_1.php http://www.tutorialhero.com/tutorial-75767-learning_pygame(simple_2d)_part_2_initializing_the_board_and_showing_it.php What we have now is the simplest of the simple(almost) of pygame programs. http://www.tutorialhero.com/tutorial-75767-learning_pygame(simple_2d)_part_2_initializing_the_board_and_showing_it.php http://www.tutorialhero.com/tutorial-75768-tic_tac_toe_in_python.php I will in this tutorial show how to make a Tic-Tac-Toe game in Python. It will include functions, lists, if statements, while loops, for loops, error handling etc. http://www.tutorialhero.com/tutorial-75768-tic_tac_toe_in_python.php http://www.tutorialhero.com/tutorial-75769-sudoku_solver_in_python_d.php So, this is my first try at this, actually the first time I've even had my code evaluated by anyone else, so here goes: http://www.tutorialhero.com/tutorial-75769-sudoku_solver_in_python_d.php
