About Learning Python, 3rd Edition

[October 2007] I'm pleased to announce the release of the 3rd Edition of the book Learning Python.

This new edition has been updated to cover Python 2.5, and includes numerous pointers for migrating to Python 3.0 in the future. Among other things, this edition has been augmented with material on function decorators, context managers, the new relative import syntax, generator expressions, and more.

In addition, this edition has been enhanced to be even more of a self-paced learning resource, with new end-of-chapter quizzes, new introductory chapters on types and syntax, and new materials derived from recent Python training sessions.
