‘Impressive’

“An impressive introduction to physical modeling and Python programming, featuring clear, concise explanations and examples. . . . perfect for readers of any level.”

—Christian Mayer, Author of Python One-Liners (No Starch Press) and Founder of the Coding Academy Finxter.com

‘Context-rich and motivating’

“Downey’s top-down approach, context-rich and motivating, dramatically lowers the barrier to gaining literacy in programming and explicitly and insightfully teaches modeling. . . . I’m grateful for this book.”

—Phat Vu, Director of the Science & Mathematics Program, Soka University of America

‘Valuable’

“Provides a wealth of instructive examples of all kinds of modeling. . . . a valuable textbook for classes on scientific computation or guide to exploration for interested amateurs.”

—Bradford Tuckfield, Author of Dive into Algorithms and Dive Into Data Science (No Starch Press)
