Software Design by Example: A Tool-Based Introduction with Python

В этом материале разберём тему: design.

Software Design by Example: A Tool-Based Introduction with Python therefore builds small versions of the things programmers use in order to demystify them and give some insights into how experienced programmers think. The best way to learn design in any field is to study examples, and some of the best examples of software design come from the tools programmers use in their own work. From a file backup system and a testing framework to a regular expression matcher, a browser layout engine, and a very small compiler, we explore common design patterns, show how making code easier to test also makes it easier to reuse, and help readers understand how debuggers, profilers, package managers, and version control systems work so that they can use them more effectively.

Each chapter has a set of exercises ranging in size and difficulty from half a dozen lines to a full day’s work. This material can be used for self-paced study, in an undergraduate course on software design, or as the core of an intensive weeklong workshop for working programmers. Readers should be familiar with the basics of modern Python, but the more advanced features of the language are explained and illustrated as they are introduced.
