Book Description

Add buttons, boxes, pictures and colours and more to your Python programs using the guizero library, which is quick, accessible, and understandable for all.

This 156-page book is suitable for everyone, from beginners to experienced Python programmers who want to explore graphical user interfaces (GUIs).

There are ten fun projects for you to create, including a painting program, an emoji match game, and a stop-motion animation creator.

• Create games and fun Python programs
• Learn how to create your own graphical user interfaces
• Use windows, text boxes, buttons, images, and more
• Learn about event-based programming
• Explore good (and bad) user interface design

• Laura Sach leads the A Level team at the Raspberry Pi Foundation, creating resources for students to learn about Computer Science.
• Martin O'Hanlon works in the learning team at the Raspberry Pi Foundation, where he creates online courses, projects, and learning resources.

  Enabling Test-Driven Development, Domain-Driven Design, and Event-Driven Microservices, it introduces proven architectural design patterns to help Python developers manage application complexity, and get the most value out of their test suites.

• Clean Architectures in Python: Better Software Design

  The clean architecture is the opposite of spaghetti code, where everything is interlaced and there are no single elements that can be easily detached from the rest and replaced without the whole system collapsing.

• Problem Solving with Algorithms/Data Structures using Python

  This is a textbook about computer science. It is also about Python. However, there is much more. The tools and techniques that you learn here will be applied over and over as you continue your study of computer science.

• Fundamentals of Python Programming (Richard L. Halterman)

  It focuses on introducing programming techniques and developing good habits. To that end, our approach avoids some of the more esoteric features of Python and concentrates on the programming basics that transfer directly to other imperative programming.

• O'Reilly® Think Python, 2nd Edition (Allen B. Downey)

  This hands-on guide takes you through the Python programming language a step at a time, beginning with basic programming concepts before moving on to functions, recursion, data structures, and object-oriented design. 2nd edition updated for Python 3.
