The second edition features new material, reorganization of text,
improved examples and software tools, updated information, and
correction of errors. This is mainly the result of numerous eager
readers around the world who have detected misprints, tested program
examples, and suggested alternative ways of doing things. I am
greatful to everyone who has sent emails and contributed with
improvements. The most important changes in the second edition are
brie?y listed below. Already in the introductory examples in Chapter 2
the reader now gets a glimpse of Numerical Python arrays, interactive
computing with the IPython shell, debugging scripts with the aid of
IPython and Pdb, and turning “?at” scripts into reusable modules
(Chapters 2. 2. 5, 2. 2. 6, and 2. 5. 3 are added). Several parts of
Chapter 4 on numerical computing have been extended (- pecially
Chapters 4. 3. 5, 4. 3. 7, 4. 3. 8, and 4. 4). Many smaller changes
have been implemented in Chapter 8; the larger ones concern
exemplifying Tar archives instead of ZIP archives in Chapter 8. 3. 4,
rewriting of the material on generators in Chapter 8. 9. 4, and an
example in in Chapter 8. 6. 13 on adding new methods to a class
without touching the original source code and without changing the
class name. Revised and additional tips on op- mizing Python code have
been included in Chapter 8. 10. 3, while the new Chapter 8. 10.
