Python Essential Reference, 4th Edition
by David Beazley
* * Now Shipping * *
I'm pleased to announce the release of the Python Essential Reference,
4th edition, now available at a bookstore near you. More than a year
in development, this edition covers Python 2.6, Python 3, and a wide
variety of new library modules. Notable new features include
- Greatly expanded coverage of advanced features such as generators,
coroutines, context managers, decorators, metaclasses, and more.
- Detailed coverage of concurrent programming including threads,
the multiprocessing library, and coroutines.
- A new chapter on testing, debugging, profiling, and performance
optimization.
- Completely revised examples and code samples appearing throughout
the text.
- New coverage of the database API, WSGI, ctypes, and other essential
library modules.
- Detailed information on Python 3 including compatibility notes,
migration strategies, notable new features, and use of the
2to3 tool.
If you liked previous editions of the Essential Reference, I think you
will be pleased--this may be the best edition yet.
Cheers,
Dave
