"The book provides you with 174 exercises, which can make you an advanced beginner . in Python. The excersises are well-structured indeed, taking into account anything from the basics of the language (printing, units, conditionals, loops and functions) to some more advanced structures as dictionaries, lists and working with files. . The excersises are well selected indeed. I liked them and I enjoyed solving (or looking at their solutions) them." (Vitosh Academy, vitoshacademy.com, February, 2015)
