How can we continue to improve our Python skills? The answer? Practice. Just as you need to practice a human language to become more fluent, you need to practice programming in Python to become more fluent -- using the idioms the way that you're supposed to, and understanding the underlying structure of the language in ways that'll help you to do more with less code. "Python Workout" contains 50 exercises that I've used in my training over the years. In going through these exercises, you'll improve your Python fluency. You'll be able to write more readable, maintainable, and Pythonic code. And you'll understand how Python works, so that when you want to learn about new features and packages, that won't be such a struggle. This book contains not only the exercises and detailed solutions, but also walk-throughs with the Python Tutor site, screencasts of me solving the exercises, and additional questions that you can explore beyond the core exercises presented in the book. I have been teaching programming in general, and Python in particular, for more than 20 years. This book is the best way I know of to take you
