Book excerpts:

The main topic of this book is application development using PyQt, a library extension to the Python programming language ? a library that is meant to form the basis for GUI programming. PyQt is free software, but there is also a commercial IDE available, BlackAdder, that is specially written to assist working with PyQt.

GUI Programming with Python presents both small examples and one really large one. Part I and II of this book concern themselves with concepts: here the examples are small, often amounting to less than one page of code. Part III takes you through the development of a complete, complex application. In this case an editor, but one with a lot of extra features.

The emphasis of the book is firmly on application development, not on creating graphics per se ? although several techniques are mentioned here and there that have to do with creating charts and graphs.

This book is intended for anyone, from beginning software developers, experienced developers, C++ developers who have turned to Python as a rapid prototyping language, and people who want to get acquainted with one of the best-designed GUI toolkits available for Python.
