The Python Programming language is a deep topic. This book provides focused guidance on installing Python, creating virtual enivironments and using Jupyter Lab to build foundational skills in using Python. The book covers many built-in data types. There are two small case studies and one larger case study to provide examples of how Python can be used to tackle real-world problems. There are over 100 code samples. 

The companion GitHub repository, https://github.com/slott56/pivot-to-python, contains all of the example code.
