The description of the book
If you have ever spent hours renaming files or updating hundreds of cells in a spreadsheet, you understand how monotonous such tasks can be. But what if a computer could perform these tasks for you?
No prior programming experience is required to learn how to use Python to write programs that accomplish in minutes what would take you hours to do manually. Once you’ve mastered the fundamentals of programming, you’ll be able to construct Python programs that perform remarkable feats of automation with ease:
Find text within a file or across multiple files.
Create, modify, rename, and transfer files and folders.
Web search and online content download
Update and format data in any size Excel spreadsheet
PDFs can be divided, merged, watermarked, and encrypted.
Send email and text message reminders
Complete online forms
Step-by-step instructions guide you through each program, and practice projects at the conclusion of each chapter challenge you to enhance those programs and automate similar duties using your newly acquired skills.
Do not waste your time on tasks that a well-trained chimpanzee could perform. Even if you’ve never written a line of code, you can instruct your computer to perform tedious tasks.
