Object-Oriented Python (No Starch Press)
Wednesday, 16 February 2022

With the subtitle "Master OOP by Building Games and GUIs", this is a guide to mastering object-oriented programming from the ground up. Irv Kalb covers the basics of building classes and creating objects, and puts theory into practice using the pygame package with clear examples that help visualize the object-oriented style. The book explores the key concepts of object-oriented programming — encapsulation, polymorphism, and inheritance — and shows best practices for doing so. Finally, you’ll bring it all together by building a complex video game, complete with full animations and sounds.

<ASIN:1718502060>

The book covers two fully functional Python code packages that will speed up development of graphical user interface (GUI)  programs in Python.
