What is the best book for in-depth Python for advanced other-language programmers? - user118967 - Jun-04-2019
Hi. I would like to receive suggestions for Python learning materials for people who are already advanced programmers in languages such as Java or C++.
Clearly there is a lot of material for beginners, but advanced Java or C++ programmers already know a lot of what's in there (what is a variable, a method, etc).
There are several "Python for Java programmers" tutorials online but they tend to be pretty shallow, just giving the basic concepts: "how to define a class in Python", etc. I would like to learn Python in depth.
Basically, I would like to learn Python in depth, without having to skim over tons of introductory programming material. Is there such a book out there? How to go about that?
Thanks.
