Harry Percival – Test Driven Development with Python
It take quite some wasted hours of coding to appreciate the full power of the TDD approach
A pragmatic programmer has to be an inquisitive, realistic critical thinker and fast adapter that is open to new perspectives and technologies

“Our program is the ‘story’ and the problem you are trying to solve the ‘idea'”
Charles Severance – Python for everybody
A highly recommended introduction to coding for aspiring data scientists, providing a rare mix of fundamentals and well-chosen practical examples.
