| INTRODUCTION TO COMPUTER SCIENCE USING PYTHON |
The book focuses on computational problem solving from chapter 1, this text provides numerous hands-on exercises and examples, each chapter ending with a significant-size program demonstrating the step-by-step process of program development, testing and debugging. a final chapter includes the history of computing, starting with charles babbage, containing over 65 historical images. an end-of-book python 3 programmers’ reference is also included for quick lookup of python details.
