LEARN PYTHON 3 THE HARD WAY
A Very Simple Introduction
to the Terrifyingly Beautiful World
of Computers and Code
This simple book is meant to get you started in programming. The title says it’s the hard way to
learn to write code, but it’s actually not. It’s only the “hard” way because it uses a technique called
instruction. Instruction is where I tell you to do a sequence of controlled exercises designed to build a
skill through repetition. This technique works very well with beginners who know nothing and need to
acquire basic skills before they can understand more complex topics. It’s used in everything from martial
arts to music to even basic math and reading skills.
This book instructs you in Python by slowly building and establishing skills through techniques such as
practice and memorization, then applying them to increasingly difficult problems. By the end of the book
you will have the tools needed to begin learning more complex programming topics. I like to tell people
that my book gives you your “programming black belt.” What this means is that you know the basics well
enough to now start learning programming.
If you work hard, take your time, and build these skills, you will learn to code.
