<h1>Python for Informatics: Exploring Information</h1>
<p>
The goal of this
book is to provide an Informatics-oriented introduction to programming in Python 2.
The primary difference between a computer science approach and the Informatics
approach taken in this book is a greater focus on using Python to solve data
analysis problems common in the world of Informatics.
</p>
<p>There is also a Python 3 <a href="book.php">version of this book</a>
