Don't fucking read lpthw. It is the worst book ever. DON'T

>>55710922
Why?

>>55710926
For one it recommends python 2, that fact only is enough. There are other really fucked up stuff.

>>55710630
Whats better than any tutorial is first having a project you want to accomplish and then googling an existing python script/app and modding it to suit your need

For me it was scrapy

>>55710933
Why is that a problem?
Python 2 has been shown to perform better than Python 3 in many cases

>>55710988
Just no. Stop using python 2. It is lagacy, they are gonna stop supporting it. 3 is much better and will be supported fkr ages. Lpthw's reason is that not every package is ported to 3 but that's not the case any more. Most are ported.

We almost there bruh http://py3readiness.org/

>Exercise 3 on math does not talk about the rounding behaviour, about the from __future__ import division, or anything for that matter; details are left for the reader to find out. “Notice the math seems "wrong”? There are no fractions, only whole numbers. You need to use a “floating point” number, which is a number with a decimal point, as in 10.5, or 0.89, or even 3.0.“
Fuck you. Dividing two integers should never return a float.

Python a shit

>>55711057
If you want integer division you use //. What is the problem?

>>55711016
>>55711038
Alright, thanks!

“Ex 40: Classes are like minimodules, objects are like mini-imports.”

I really can't defend that

>>55711094
>If you want integer division you use //. What is the problem?
That it does black magic, something which is supposed to be considered an antipattern in Python. Guido really fucked the dog on this one. How are little twerps supposed to learn that division isn't mathematically valid over the ring N?

>>55711132
That is the dumbest shit I've ever read. Wholly shit, how stupid are python programmers?

>>55711187
>how stupid are python programners
Not stupid enough to recommend that book faggot.

>>55710630
Just use LPTHW; it's shit but it's a start.

Not like you're getting better advice in this thread

Why start with python? Learn C++ instead senpai

Name 1 reason you should start with python

>>55711297
it's easy

>>55711283
Atleast check what the reddit page is

>a ring

Codecademy SUCKS.
I used this: http://inventwithpython.com/chapters/

>>55711338
Clicking any r*ddit link is absolutely haram

>>55711393
oh sorry i didn't know you were christian

>>55711380
That's actually really good; it's fun to complete and teaches you practical programming. You actually get to do shit with what you're taught.

But you won't learn the complex shit to actually be a good programmer and net yourself a job. It's like what Indians learn as opposed to the type of education you'd get in computer science at a university.

>actually don't know anything about programming
>just baiting on /g/
>just here to fap to trap programmer threads

Ironically the best coders ive met are self taught immigrants. Because they started developing at 14 years old to make money in their shit tier countries.


All the american dudes we hire out of college are:
1. over entitled in terms of pay because they think they're hotshit because they have a CS/infosys degree

2. Lazy in turns of output, once again compared to the immigrants

3. "Good at debugging" doesnt mean what you think it means. It means you're inexperienced.
