Python for the Life Sciences
Treat yourself to a lively, intuitive, and easy-to-follow introduction to computer programming in Python. The book was written specifically for biologists with little or no prior experience of writing code - with the goal of giving them not only a foundation in Python programming, but also the confidence and inspiration to start using Python in their own research. Virtually all of the examples in the book are drawn from across a wide spectrum of life science research, from simple biochemical calculations and sequence analysis, to modeling the dynamic interactions of genes and proteins in cells, or the drift of genes in an evolving population. Best of all, Python for the Life Sciences shows you how to implement all of these projects in Python, one of the most popular programming languages for scientific computing. If you are a life scientist interested in learning Python to jump-start your research, this is the book for you.What You'll Learn Write Python scripts to automate your lab calculationsSearch for important motifs in genome sequencesUse object-oriented programming with PythonStudy mining interaction network data for patternsReview dynamic modeling of biochemical switchesWho This Book Is ForLife scientists with little or no programming experience, including undergraduate and graduate students, postdoctoral researchers in academia and industry, medical professionals, and teachers/lecturers.“A comprehensive introduction to using Python for computational biology...

Introduction to Python Network Automation
Using a practical, hands-on approach to learning that establishes the foundations for writing functional network automation codes, this book is an essential resource for anyone seeking to develop their network automation skills using Python. The second edition is structured similarly to its previous edition, but has updated software and new content, including a new section on building an IP Address Management (IPAM) and DC Infrastructure Management server. By utilizing selective technologies and constructing your virtualized networking lab environment on a single laptop or PC, you’ll gain essential skills in Python programming, Linux administration, VMware virtualization, and network proof-of-concept (POC) lab building. The book provides only the necessary background information, minimizing theoretical and conceptual noise that could distract you from your learning objectives. With the aid of illustrations and real-world exercises, the book creates a welcoming and practical learning environment. By the halfway point, you’ll have learned enough technical skills to begin your network automation journey, including developing a functional POC lab geared towards Python network automation development from the comfort of your laptop. The latter part of the book culminates in a functional Cisco IOS-XE upgrade application. Although the contents are selective explorations of each topic, this book familiarizes you with the most useful tools and techniques for automating your company’s Cisco Enterprise network with Python. If you’re just starting or looking to expand your existing knowledge about Python network automation, this book is the gateway to your network automation journey.What You'll LearnExplore Python fundamentals and network automation strategies.Use Python for network administration tasks.Understand Linux fundamentals and IP service installation.Employ regular expressions in Python.Build a network automation proof-of-concept lab using VMware Workstation.Who This Book Is For IT engineers and developers, network managers and students, who would like to learn network automation using Python.
