This book was a truly different learning experience. Rather than focusing on some principles with small projects, it is massive project after massive project. The approach to building nd learning items is awesome, and could be an excellent reference for those developing exclusively in Python. Even without that emphasis, the access to the GitHub pieces to explore and template. It always helps me to be able to look through how others solve problems, and this did exactly that for me. If the hardest part of coding for you is getting started with that template, you could definitely use this book.

Overall, it is a great book! Not for beginners, this book is for experienced programmers who want to improve their skills by completing professional-level Python projects. It’s also for developers who need to display their skills by demonstrating a portfolio of work. The included projects require a wide variety of skills, including software and data architecture, design, Python programming and test design. You can download the code bundle for the book on GitHub.This book is all about data handling. The great and unique feature of the book is that it provides big project after another big project. Starting with Acquiring Data From Sources, the first six projects will cover projects to acquire data for analytic processing from a variety of sources. Next topic Inspect and Survey includes five projects to inspect data to make sure it’s usable, and diagnose odd problems, outliers, and exceptions. The general analytics pipeline moves on to Cleaning, Converting, and Normalizing. There are eight projects that tackle these closely-related problems. The useful results begin with Presenting Summaries. There’s a lot of variability here, so only two project ideas included. This book winds up with two small projects covering some basics of Statistical Modeling. Author encourages you to continue your study of Python applications in the data science realm.Completion of the projects will place you on another level in Python. Enjoy the challenge in every project!

The projects presented in the book are presented with a focus on how to approach them. The projects are not completed, they are meant to help the reader get started and finish on their own based on the approaches detailed in the book. This is not the normal programming book that provides all source code and then explains it – this requires more from the reader. Personally, I think this is a great approach. We learn to program by programming and this book will push you to the limit.

"Python Real World Objects" appears to provide a practical, project-based approach to mastering data handling in Python. It walks us through the full data analytics pipeline, from data acquisition to statistical modeling. With its focus on real-world applications and step-by-step projects, the book offers valuable insights to enhance our skills.The gradual project methodology used in the book, together with the incorporation of concepts such as online APIs and JSON Schema, helped me to become familiar with the complexities of processing data at the business level.

Unprofessional content formatting/layout. Repetitive content. Incomplete code provided.It seems like the text has been automatically generated and then adapted or revised.I don't understand the other reviews, with 5 stars. They encouraged me to buy this book, but now I feel deceived.
