This resource is invaluable for Python programmers of all levels, featuring contributions from notable figures like Guido Van Rossum, David Ascher, Tim Peters, Paul Prescod, Mark Hammond, and Alex Martelli, among others. The recipes not only showcase best practices but also serve as practical tools for daily programming tasks, sources of inspiration, and educational material for deepening Python knowledge. Edited by David Ascher and Alex Martelli, the book includes a foreword by Guido van Rossum, enhancing its credibility and relevance in the Python programming landscape.

Python Essential Reference is the definitive reference guide to the Python programming language--the one authoritative handbook that reliably untangles and explains both the core Python library. Designed for the practicing programmer, the book is concise, to the point, and highly accessible. It also includes detailed information on the Python library and many advanced subjects that is not available in either the official Python documentation or any other single reference source. Thoroughly updated to reflect the significant new programming language features and library modules that have been introduced in Python 2.6 and Python 3, the fourth edition of Python Essential Reference is the complete guide for programmers who need to modernize existing Python code or who are planning an eventual migration to Python 3.

"Focusing on Python 3.6 and higher, this concise handbook focuses on the essential core of the language, with updated code examples to illuminate how Python works and how to structure programs that can be more easily explained, tested, and debugged. Throughout, Beazley reflects all he's learned teaching Python to scientists, engineers, and developers, and pushing the envelope of what makes Python tick."--Page 4 of cover.
