There are new puzzles to inspire you and two new appendices to guide you through Python's built-in modules and troubleshooting your code.As you strike out on your programming adventure, you'll learn how to:Use fundamental data structures like lists, tuples, and dictionaries Organize and reuse your code with functions and modulesUse control structures like loops and conditional statements Draw shapes and patterns with Python's turtle moduleCreate games, animations, and other graphical wonders with tkinterWhy should serious adults have all the fun?
