Review # 1 was written on 2012-10-19 00:00:00 Jodie Boyce This book has been war-torn by me over the last couple of years as Python is my favourite scripting language which I use on a pretty well daily basis. I love going through this book over and over again learning more and more oddities and pecularities of the language, striving to always be more and more pythonic.

Review # 2 was written on 2013-02-02 00:00:00 William Foster I'm a pretty concrete thinker and tend to take things literally. While this is a good reference for confirming syntax, etc., the language used in some of the explanations has an abstractness to it that I found difficult. Where the information itself could have been formated to demonstrate or reiterate the explanation, it often isn't. '''This is a multiline block''' ... is written on a single line. I reread it more than once because I thought maybe I was misinterpreting. I would've immediately been confident that I understood if it had instead been: ''' This is a multiline block ''' Table 1 has descending order for ascending precedence of operators, and it would've been lovely if it had been arranged to be ascending-ascending or descending-descending instead, reducing the need for the confusing explanation about "lower cells of this table have higher precedence".
