    About this ebook

    Are you tired of your Python code turning out wrong? Are you forever finding it difficult to read your code, to spot where the problems are because it is, quite frankly, a mess? Are you fed up with reading so-called Best Practice guides that leave you more confused than you were when you started?


    This book “Python: Best Practices to Programming Code with Python”, will give you a straightforward guide on how to write better Python code.
    With this book, you will learn :


    • General Concepts of Python Coding

    • Python Coding Recommendations

    • The best way to layout Python Code

    • All about idioms, or how to write code

    • How to write comments

    • Writing Conventions to follow

    • How to write Function and Method Arguments

    • ... And much, much more!



    Added Benefits of owning this book:


    • Gain a better grasp of efficient and effective Python code to achieve programming success

    • Speed up your programming abilities by avoiding time-wasting mistakes

    • Gain the most important Best Practice concepts in your path towards Python programming mastery!



    By reading my Best Practice guide for Python coding, you will learn the best way to write better code, code that is readable and that others can understand. The value of this is self-evident in that, when you do write a program based on Python code, it will run smoothly and with no errors. That is what programming success is all about.

      Python - Charlie Masterson

      Introduction

      Iwant to thank you and congratulate you for reading the book, Python: Best Practices to Programming Code with Python. This book contains proven steps and strategies on how to program in Python more effectively. When you first learn Python, you will be taught how to write code, but in many cases, you will not be taught how to write that code neatly.

      If you speak to any Python programmer, ask them what it is they like about Python. I guarantee they will tell you that one of the main reasons is because it is easily readable. In fact, this is the absolute heart of the Python language, simply because computer code is read far more than it is written. Much of this is down to the fact that Python code follows a set of guidelines and Pythonic idioms – if you hear a programmer refer to a part of the code as not being Pythonic, it means that it doesn’t follow those guidelines and it doesn’t express intent in any readable manner.

      Code style and layout is incredibly important, as is consistency in the style that you use. With that said, there are times when consistency isn’t the right thing and the guidelines are simply not applicable – you have to know when that time is and that is when best judgment comes into programming with Python.

      With this guide, I am going to show you the absolute best way to write your code, tidying up your program and making it all more effective and efficient. I won’t just give you the basic. I will delve deep into everything you need to know, from the layout of the code to how to write functions, idioms, and names. 

      I will talk about whitespaces and tabs, strings, and methods. I will also be giving you some general recommendations for Python programming along with the general concepts. In short, by the time you have read my Best Practice guide, you will be the best Python programmer you can possibly be.

      My book does assume some prior knowledge of Python programming, so if you are a complete newbie to the programming scene, please familiarize yourself with Python code before you read this book. My aim is to help you to produce Python code that is free from, or at least has very few, complications or obvious problems, as well as making it more readable for others.

      Thanks again for reading this book, I hope you enjoy it!
