A Whirlwind Tour of Python (Jake VanderPlas)

A Whirlwind Tour of Python is a quick introduction to Python's key features for researchers and developers who are already comfortable with other programming languages.

The content serves as an introduction to my longer book, The Python Data Science Handbook, and is specifically geared toward people who want to use Python for data science and/or scientific programming.
