Why read it?

1 author picked Beyond the Basic Stuff with Python as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

Al is one of the clearest writers on Python that I know. Here he distills his experience as both a working software engineer and a successful author to take coders from advanced beginner/intermediate level on to all of the “extra” knowledge one needs to write good code for practical use. When I read this book I find myself wishing I could write with such simplicity.

From Naomi's list on to level up your Python skills.
