I love the Jupyter-/Colab-approach and would like to join the journey... and support the project by buying the book (although I don´t need it to follow the Colab?). But without subscribing to the OReilly-learning platform it seems that buying it on amazon is the only option, right ?
- bemusedthrow75 3y agoIt's a pre-order even on Amazon. The publication date for the book isn't until later in the year (at least for the edition available in the UK, which will probably be the same): https://www.whsmith.co.uk/products/think-python-how-to-think-like-a-computer-scientist-3rd-revised-edition/allen-b-downey/paperback/9781098155438.html https://www.whsmith.co.uk/products/think-python-how-to-think... https://blackwells.co.uk/bookshop/product/Think-Python-by-Allen-B-Downey/9781098155438 https://blackwells.co.uk/bookshop/product/Think-Python-by-Al... (Blackwells think September, incidentally, whereas WHS think the end of July) Amazon just list books way, way earlier in pre-order than a lot of places.
