Learn to Program with Minecraft (No Starch Press)
Wednesday, 10 February 2016

You've bested creepers, traveled deep into caves, and maybe even gone to The End and back-but have you ever transformed a sword into a magic wand? Built a palace in the blink of an eye? Designed your own color-changing disco dance floor? With the subtitle "Transform Your World with the Power of Python" Craig Richardson introduces Python 3. After some short, simple lessons you can use your new skills to customize Minecraft to make mini-games, duplicate entire buildings, and turn boring blocks into gold.

<ASIN:1593276702>

Whether you're a Minecraft megafan or a newbie, you'll see Minecraft in a whole new light while learning the basics of programming. Sure, you could spend all day mining for precious resources or building your mansion by hand, but with the power of Python, those days are over!
