Instructions and Navigation

All of the code is organized into folders. Each folder starts with a number followed by the application name. For example, Chapter02.

The code will look like the following:

def example_function(name, radius):  area = math.pi * radius ** 2  return "The area of {} is {}" .format(name, area)

You will need Ubuntu 16.04 and Python (version 3.6). You can also run the code examples on Windows and macOS. You may opt to use VirtualBox as well to test the code in the book.
