Recenzje

'An Introduction to Python Programming for Scientists and Engineers introduces programming in Python using evidence-based approaches to active learning. The exercises help both students and instructors identify misconceptions in programming, allowing students to build a strong foundation in Python programming. The book streamlines content such that there is a focus on mastering immediately useful concepts, normalizing errors, and demonstrating recovery.' Kari L. Jordan, Executive Director, The Carpentries
