#3From related Reddit thread[0]:
Note: This is not related with that paid "intermediate Python" book in any way. I became aware of it today. I had been using this name internally for a couple of months. If the author of paid "Intermediate Python" has any issue with this I would be more than happy to change the name of my book because he definitely beated me to the finish line. :)

That is totally different from my book :) I haven't read it so I can not tell how much different it is from mine. Perhaps you can tell if you have read it?

I was right about to buy it, completely blind, based on the similar title, because a good deed deserves a good deed: I support anyone who gives their book away for free online and offers a hard-copy (Learn You a Haskell, I'm looking at you) for purchase.
Let me know if you have an Amazon affiliate link, tipjar, or need help with any projects.
Edit: whoa, at least 5 redditors had the same "do you have a paypal?" sentiment. I suggest you have a header on visit and start collecting opt-in emails. That way, people like me will be emailed the second you get all setup.
Edit 2: Also, this definitely is a good "resume" for consulting work. I'd put an "Available for Hire/Retainer" notice at the header of every page, in case someone has an overflow of work, and/or a corporate manager wants a flexible contractor asset available as an insurance policy for behind-schedule projects. Don't charge less than 150/hr in 20 hour blocks per month for retainer work (use it or lose it), and 175ish/hr for active work.
Re: Intermediate Python
#7This looks great just from glancing over the table of contents. I picked up Python nearly a year ago and I am a pretty novice programmer at best. Over time I've learned stuff like decorators, lambas, args/kwargs and other stuff that you generally don't find in the "Intro to Python" books, but its all been through stumbling into the right place. Thanks for sharing, I may have something to read this week :)

I think your book goes for breadth of topics while his primarily focuses on solid understanding of iterators, generators, and decorators.
p.s. I only looked at the "Enumeration" page in your book, and I don't think it belongs in an "intermediate" level Python book. The use of optional arguments makes little sense to me (not something I wanted to know about Python after I learned the basics).
I'm sure other chapters have more relevant content though, and I appreciate your effort.

That is advanced level stuff :) If you want to add it to this book then kindly go ahead. This book is open source.
