This book is an overview of the features of the Python programming language. In the 36 chapters, there are more than 300 small programs, where you will learn many details about all main aspects of programming in this language.

The book is primarily intended to be used with the modern compiler of the third version of the language and highlights the differences between Python 2 and Python 3 where that makes sense. A number of sections explain the new features appeared in Python 3.8.

In general, the difficulty of the examples increases to the end of the book, but you can read the chapters and the sections in any order.
