Dive Into Python is a hands-on guide to the Python language. Each chapter starts with a real complete code sample, proceeds to pick it apart and explain the pieces, and then puts it all back together again in a summary at the end.

Python is a new and innovative scripting language. It is set to replace Perl as the programming language of choice for shell scripters, and for serious application developers wanting a feature rich yet simple language to deploy their products in.

This book is not for newbies, for wimps, or for dummies™. It assumes a lot about you:

- You know at least one real object-oriented language, such as Java, C#, or Delphi.

- You know at least one other scripting language, such as Perl, Visual Basic, or Javascript.

If you’re just getting started programming, that doesn’t mean you can’t learn Python. Python is an easy language to learn, but you should probably learn it somewhere else. That said, Dive Into Python will be a guide for people who can jump into languages fast and get going.
