I've been doing Python programming for some 5 years now and lurking on the python-dev list for a little under a year. That's where I'm coming from. Even with that, I find the recipes in this cookbook fascinating and it's a great tool to have when I'm writing those scripts that I need to put together quickly without thinking through things. The recipes cover a broad spectrum of problem domains--an attribute that I would have thought would be detrimental, yet it doesn't adversely affect the depth. The discussions in regards to some of the recipes is very insightful--some of the easier and more obvious recipes have discussions that kind of belabor the point (at least in my eyes). That's my only nit. Excellent book. Definitely worth having on the bookshelf especially if you do a lot of Python wrangling. |
