A Whirlwind Tour of Python is a fast-paced introduction to essential
components of the Python language for researchers and developers who are
already familiar with programming in another language.
The material is particularly aimed at those who wish to use Python for data
science and/or scientific programming, and in this capacity serves as an
introduction to
The Python Data Science Handbook (also
with notebooks on github).
These materials are adapted from courses and workshops I've given on these
topics at University of Washington and at various conferences, meetings, and
workshops around the world.
This material was written and tested using Python 3.5, and should work for any Python 3.X
version. I have done my best to note places where the syntax of Python 2.X will differ.
