Overview

Take your Python coding to the next level! Book 2 continues seamlessly on from Python Basics, offering full support and progressive tasks for students who have some basic programming experience and are ready to move on to slightly more challenging material.

You will learn how to program and customise a simple calculator and, most importantly, learn essential new programming ideas that will make you a much more accomplished coder.

The code is suitable for Mac, Windows and Linux users and therefore compatible with the Raspberry Pi.
