Head First Learn to Code (O'Reilly)
Thursday, 18 January 2018

This book is designed to teach you how to think computationally and how to write code to make your computer, mobile device, or anything with a CPU do things for you. Using Python and a step by step approach, author Eric Freeman shows the core concepts of programming alongside topics such as data structures, storage, abstraction, recursion, and modularity.

<ASIN:1491958863>

Based on the latest research in cognitive science and learning theory, the book uses a visually rich format to engage your mind, rather than a text-heavy approach.
