About this textbook
- Example-oriented text with all applications taken from science and engineering
- Aimed at newcomers to programming and Python, but proved to be useful for professionals too
- All examples are accompanied by complete program codes, which can be modified to the reader's needs
- Covers both Matlab-style "simple" programming and object-oriented programming
- Demonstrates how Python can be an alternative to Matlab in scientific computing

- Reviews
From the reviews of the third edition:
“A Primer on Scientific Programming with Python simultaneously introduces us to the Python programming language and its use in scientific computing. … The reader will learn good Python programming style from the Primer. The book will often present a direct solution using only the most basic language features … . Those of us who have learned scientific programming in Python ‘on the streets’ could be a little jealous of students who have the opportunity to take a course out of Langtangen’s Primer.” (John D. Cook, The Mathematical Association of America, September, 2011)
