Working on a Python introduction book titled "100 Page Python Intro" for those already familiar with programming basics.

More than 50% done so far. I'm updating the content weekly on Saturdays here: https://learnbyexample.github.io/100_page_python_intro/

As always, writing a book teaches me a lot as I read documentation and other learning resources more closely. It's fun to discover tidbits, for ex: startswith and endswith string methods can also accept a tuple of strings to check. There's a neat glossary on the official site - https://docs.python.org/3/glossary.html. There are cli options to disable version and copyright messages, .pyc file creation and so on.

Feedback appreciated :)



This is going to be beautiful
