I'm looking for a good book on Python. I recently finished, "Python Scripting for ArcGIS" by Zandbergen and really enjoyed it. Does anyone out there have any other good recommendations? I've been finding myself using Arcpy less then 50% of the time in my code, so it doesn't necessarily have to be specific to Python and ArcPy.</P><P>Thank you <SPAN aria-label="Happy" class="emoticon_happy emoticon-inline" style="height:16px;width:16px;"></SPAN></P></BODY></HTML> Tue, 19 Aug 2014 21:02:07 GMT https://community.esri.com/t5/python-questions/any-good-python-books/m-p/468296#M36539 NettoChad 2014-08-19T21:02:07Z Re: Any Good Python Books https://community.esri.com/t5/python-questions/any-good-python-books/m-p/468297#M36540 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>I have used, and recommended to my students, any book <A href="http://oreilly.com/python/">published by O'Reilly</A> This web link is for python focussed books..&nbsp; Beyond that, books are personal and a single book won't suit all purposes or all people.</P></BODY></HTML> Tue, 19 Aug 2014 21:07:15 GMT https://community.esri.com/t5/python-questions/any-good-python-books/m-p/468297#M36540 DanPatterson_Retired 2014-08-19T21:07:15Z Re: Any Good Python Books https://community.esri.com/t5/python-questions/any-good-python-books/m-p/468298#M36541 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>Thank you.
