Editorial Reviews

Propelled by growing interest in open source scripting languages, harried adoption of Web frameworks such as Django (http://www.djangoproject.com/), and continued work on third-party language implementations such as IronPython (http://www.codeplex.com/IronPython), the Python programming language is experiencing surging community enthusiasm and adoption. With both Microsoft and Google heavily investing in Python-related products and services, the potential audience can only grow for the foreseeable future.

Beginning Python, Second Edition is the long-awaited revision to the popular first edition, having been updated to reflect new features introduced with Python 3.0. Additional changes are being made to reflect modern development paradigms, such as the exploding popularity of using Web frameworks such as Django in lieu of more archaic approaches.
