The Practice of Computing Using Python, 3/e (GE-Paperback)

For courses in Python Programming

Introduces Python programming with an emphasis on problem-solving

Now in its Third Edition, Practice of Computing Using Python continues to effectively introduce readers to computational thinking using Python, with a strong emphasis on problem solving through computer science. The authors have chosen Python for its simplicity, powerful built-in data structures, advanced control constructs, and practicality. The text is built from the ground up for Python programming, rather than having been translated from Java or C++.

Focusing on data manipulation and analysis as a theme, the text allows readers to work on real problems using Internet-sourced or self-generated data sets that represent their own work and interests. The authors also emphasize program development and provide readers of all backgrounds with a practical foundation in programming that suit their needs. Among other changes, the Third Edition incorporates a switch to the Anaconda distribution, the SPYDER IDE, and a focus on debugging and GUIs.

Also available with MyProgrammingLab^™

MyProgrammingLab is an online learning system designed to engage students and improve results. MyProgrammingLab consists of a set of programming exercises correlated to specific Pearson CS1/Intro to Programming textbooks. Through practice exercises and immediate, personalized feedback, MyProgrammingLab improves the programming competence of beginning students who often struggle with the basic concepts of programming languages.

Note: You are purchasing a standalone product; MyLab^™ & Mastering^™ does not come packaged with this content. Students, if interested in purchasing this title with MyLab & Mastering, ask your instructor for the correct package ISBN and Course ID.

《使用Python進行計算的實踐》第三版是一本以解決問題為重點的Python程式設計課程教材。本書以Python為基礎，強調通過計算機科學解決問題的能力。作者選擇Python是因為它的簡單性、強大的內建數據結構、高級控制結構和實用性。本書著重於以數據操作和分析為主題，讓讀者使用互聯網或自行生成的數據集來解決真實問題。此外，本書還強調程序開發，為各種背景的讀者提供了一個實用的編程基礎。第三版還引入了Anaconda發行版、SPYDER集成開發環境以及調試和圖形用戶界面方面的重點內容。

此外，本書還提供了MyProgrammingLab，這是一個在線學習系統，旨在提高學生的學習參與度和成績。MyProgrammingLab包含一組與特定Pearson CS1/Intro to Programming教材相關的編程練習題。通過練習和即時個性化反饋，MyProgrammingLab提高了初學者學生對編程語言基本概念的理解能力。

需要注意的是，本書是一個獨立的產品，不包含MyLab和Mastering。如果學生有興趣購買包含MyLab和Mastering的版本，請向您的教師索取正確的套餐ISBN和課程ID。教師們可以聯繫Pearson代表獲取更多信息。
