SYNOPSIS
Are you a Perl programmer who would like to be able to programme in Python? Brimming with a wealth of practical examples and resources this book will show you how. The first section will show you the basic layout and approach of the two languages whilst the second section moves on to the specific differences of using Python data types and objects over Perl variables. The book then moves on to look at the core technologies behind the Python language, including the exception system for handling errors, the class and object orientation system for creating new classes and instances and how to split your program into functions and modules for easier management. All of these basics are treated with respect to people's existing understanding and skills in Perl programming and how they can be leveraged in Python. The last section of the book then looks at specific areas of programming, data manipulation, network communicated, web programming and others to demonstrate to the reader how to make the move from Perl programming to Python programming. Skills you will learn * Introduction to Python * How to Execute Python Programs * Components of a Python Program * The Basic Function Definition * All about Modules, Classes and Object Orientation * How to apply Python * How to interface with the Operating system * Data Manipulation * File manipulation * Communicating over a network * Web development ABOUT THE AUTHOR
