Best-selling author Al Sweigart shows you how to easily build over 80 fun programs with minimal code and maximum creativity. If you`ve mastered basic Python syntax and you`re ready to start writing programs, you`ll find The Big Book of Small Python Projects both enlightening and fun. This collection of 81 Python projects will have you making digital art, games, animations, counting pro- grams, and more right away. Once you see how the code works, you`ll practice re-creating the programs and experiment by adding your own custom touches. These simple, text-based programs are 256 lines of code or less. And whether it`s a vintage screensaver, a snail-racing game, a clickbait headline generator, or animated strands of DNA, each project is designed to be self-contained so you can easily share it online. You`ll create: - Hangman, Blackjack, and other games to play against your friends or the computer - Simulations of a forest fire, a million dice rolls, and a Japanese abacus - Animations like a virtual fish tank, a rotating cube, and a bouncing DVD logo screensaver - A first-person 3D maze game - Encryption programs that use ciphers like ROT13 and Vigenère to conceal text If you`re tired of standard step-by-step tutorials, you`ll love the learn-by-doing approach of The Big Book of Small Python Projects. It`s proof that good things come in small programs!
