Description
There's no time to take programming lessons when you're facing a deadline. Python Cookbook helps you solve everyday problems quickly with code you can use in your applications right away -- whether you're using Python as an object-oriented language, a scripting language, or a functional language. Updated for Python 2.6 and 3.x, the third edition of this book provides easy-to-find recipes for everything from simple tasks, such as working with dictionaries and list comprehensions, to complex tasks such as monitoring a network and building a templating system. Each recipe also includes an explanation of how and why it works. You'll get the job done faster and learn more about Python in the process. Topics include: * Manipulating text * Searching and sorting * Working with files and the filesystem * Object-oriented programming * Dealing with threads and processes * System administration * Interacting with databases * Network and web programming * Processing XML * Distributed programming * Debugging and testing * Plus new chapters on time, money, and metaprogramming
