Book info: Python Programming: An Introduction to Computer Science, 3rd Ed. (Paperback, 552 pages) – Franklin, Beedle & Associates, 2016. Language: English.

This third edition of John Zelle's Python Programming continues the tradition of updating the text to reflect new technologies while maintaining a time-tested approach to teaching introductory computer science. An important change to this edition is the removal of most uses of eval and the addition of a discussion of its dangers. In our increasingly connected world, it's never too early to begin considering computer security issues. This edition also uses several new graphics examples, developed throughout chapters 4-12.
