Stuck in a coding conundrum? Whether you're an advanced beginner, an intermediate developer, or a curious newcomer, the complexities of coding can often feel like a labyrinth with no exit. With Python, however, you can start writing real code quickly-but where should you start?In this updated third edition, Bill Lubanovic acts as your personal guide to Python, offering a clear path through the intricacies and capabilities of this much-beloved coding language, including new chapters on AI models and performance enhancements. Easy to understand and enjoyable to read, this book not only teaches you the core concepts but also dives into practical applications that bridge the gap between learning and doing. By reading it, you will:Understand everything from basic data structures to advanced featuresGain insights into using Python for files, networking, databases, and data scienceLearn testing, debugging, code reuse, and other essential development tipsExplore how Python can be utilized in business, science, and the arts

If you''re an experienced system administrator looking to acquire Linux skills, or a seasoned Linux user facing a new challenge, Linux System Administration offers practical knowledge for managing a complete range of Linux systems and servers. The book summarizes the steps you need to build everything from standalone SOHO hubs, web servers, and LAN servers to load-balanced clusters and servers consolidated through virtualization. Along the way, you''ll learn about all of the tools you need to set up and maintain these working environments.

Linux is now a standard corporate platform with users numbering in the hundreds of millions, and there is a definite shortage of talented administrators. Linux System Administration is ideal as an introduction to Linux for Unix veterans, MCSEs, and mainframe administrators, and as an advanced (and refresher) guide for existing Linux administrators who will want to jump into the middle of the book. Inside, you''ll learn how to:

Set up a stand-alone Linux serverInstall, configure, maintain, and troubleshoot a DNS server using BINDBuild an Internet server to manage sites, perform email and file transfers, and moreSet up an email service for a small-to-medium-sized site, complete with authenticationInstall and configure Apache, PHP, and MySQL on a web server built from scratchCombine computers into a load-balanced Apache web server cluster based on the free Linux Virtual ServerSet up local network services from distributed file systems to DHCP services, gateway services, print services, user management and moreUse Linux virtualization with Xen or VMWare to run multiple kernels on one piece of hardware; manage each kernel''s access to processor time, devices, and memoryCreate shell scripts and adapt them for your own needsBack up and restore data with rsync, tar, cdrecord, Amanda, and MySQL toolsLinux System Administration is not only knowledgeable and practical, but convenient. The ingredients for this book had been scattered throughout mailing lists, forums, and discussion groups, as well as books, periodicals, and the experiences of colleagues. Everything is now in one handy guide. In the course of their research, the authors also solved many problems whose solutions were completely undocumented. They now pass their lessons on to you.

FastAPI is a young yet solid framework that takes advantage of newer Python features in a clean design. As its name implies, FastAPI is indeed fast, rivaling similar frameworks in languages such as Golang. With this practical book, developers familiar with Python will learn how FastAPI lets you accomplish more in less time with less code.

Author Bill Lubanovic covers the nuts and bolts of FastAPI development with how-to guides on various topics such as forms, database access, graphics, maps, and more that will take you beyond the basics. This book also includes how-to guides that will get you up to speed on RESTful APIs, data validation, authorization, and performance. With its similarities to frameworks like Flask and Django, you''ll find it easy to get started with FastAPI.

Through the course of this book, you will:

Learn how to build web applications with FastAPIUnderstand the differences between FastAPI, Starlette, and pydanticLearn two features that set FastAPI apart: asynchronous functions and data type checking and validationExamine new features of Python 3.8+, especially type annotationsUnderstand the differences between sync and async PythonLearn how to connect with external APIs and services
