Still working my way through the book, but a very interesting read/dive into Domain Driven Design with functional programming.
Python - Programming
-
Python Cookbook by David Beazley and Brian K. Jones
A great recipe book when you need a solution for a specific problem in mind. Definitely not a bedside table book. -
Effective Python by Brett Slatkin
Likewise, with an emphasis on coding practices and standards. Great read. -
Automate the boring Stuff with Python by Al Sweigart
A great book to recommend to friends and family (or colleagues) who are new to programming and want to start somewhere.
Python - Finance
-
Mastering Pandas for Finance by Michael Heydt
One of the first books I picked up after Automate the boring Stuff. Not everything is up to date but it’s nonetheless a good introduction. -
Python for Finance Cookbook by Eryk Lewinson
The author goes over a wide range of topics, so pick and choose. Discovered great libraries like seaborn and statsmodels.
Python - Data Science
-
Think Stats by Allen Downey
A lovely book that goes over basic statistics, linear regression and statistical inference. -
Think Bayes by Allen B. Downey
A great book on Bayesian statistics and most importantly on Bayesian thinking. Not yet finished, to be continued..
