The bestselling introduction to Python programming, revised to include the latest Python features, improved explanations, and new chapters about databases and sound files.

If you’ve ever spent hours renaming files or updating hundreds of spreadsheet cells, you know how tedious tasks like these can be. But what if you could have your computer do this work for you?

In this fully revised third edition of Automate the Boring Stuff with Python, you’ll learn how to use Python to write programs that do in minutes what would take you hours to do by hand—no prior programming experience required. Early chapters will teach you the fundamentals of Python through clear explanations and engaging examples. You’ll write your first Python program; work with strings, lists, dictionaries, and other data structures; then use regular expressions to find and manipulate text patterns. 

Once you’ve mastered the basics, you’ll tackle projects that teach you to use Python to automate tasks like:

  • Searching the web, downloading content, and filling out forms
  • Finding, extracting, and manipulating text and data in files and spreadsheets
  • Copying, moving, renaming, or compressing saved files on your computerSplitting, merging, and extracting text from PDFs and Word documents
  • Interacting with applications through custom mouse and keyboard macros
  • Managing your inbox, unsubscribing from lists, and sending email or text notifications

New to this edition: All code and examples have been thoroughly updated. You’ll also find four new chapters on database integration, speech recognition, and audio and video editing, as well as 16 new programming projects and expanded coverage of developer techniques like creating command line programs.

Don’t spend your time on work a well-trained monkey could do. Even if you’ve never written a line of code, you can pass off that grunt work to your computer. Learn how in Automate the Boring Stuff with Python.

Holds up Dragonball 12" figures
Color: White - 9 Pcs, Color: White - 9 Pcs
They're the perfect size for holding up Limit Breaker figures. Broly takes two...The supplied tape is terrible; Frieza fell down within a couple of hours. Used nails instead and no issue.

Easy Install, Stable, & Fun
Color: Black - 7 Pcs
These are simple plastic shelves but that's exactly why I got them. I wanted to display and assortment of my favorite figures and I love how it came out with my wall decor. They are sturdy, but I wouldn't put books or anything with real weight to them. I didn't use screws since I'm in an apartment so I used double sized sticky backs and they look great. The size is small but as advertised. Overall, functions well and already bought more!
