Introduction to Psychophysics with Python
Introduction to Psychophysics with Python is a hands-on guide to exploring how we sense and perceive the world—powered by modern Python programming. Bridging classical theory with today’s computational tools, it equips students and researchers to design, run, and analyze psychophysical experiments with confidence.Starting from the foundations laid by Weber, Fechner, and Stevens, the book traces the evolution of psychophysics into contemporary practice. Readers gain a clear grounding in sensory physiology, experimental design, and statistical analysis, always tied to the central challenge: connecting physical stimuli to perceptual responses and making sense of the data.What sets this book apart is its practical, step-by-step approach. Through tutorials and annotated code using PsychoPy, readers learn Python essentials—loops, conditionals, data handling—while building real experiments. These skills extend seamlessly into advanced methods like curve fitting, bootstrapping, and statistical inference.Illustrated with intuitive explanations, diagrams, and thought-provoking exercises, the book blends conceptual clarity with real-world application. By the end, readers will not only understand the principles of psychophysics but also have the coding expertise to create and analyze their own experiments—opening the door to deeper insights into sensation and perception.

Python Programming for Data Analysis
This textbook grew out of notes for the ECE143 Programming for Data Analysis class that the author has been teaching at University of California, San Diego, which is a requirement for both graduate and undergraduate degrees in Machine Learning and Data Science. This book is ideal for readers with some Python programming experience. The book covers key language concepts that must be understood to program effectively, especially for data analysis applications. Certain low-level language features are discussed in detail, especially Python memory management and data structures. Using Python effectively means taking advantage of its vast ecosystem. The book discusses Python package management and how to use third-party modules as well as how to structure your own Python modules. The section on object-oriented programming explains features of the language that facilitate common programming patterns.After developing the key Python language features, the book moves on to third-party modules that are foundational for effective data analysis, starting with Numpy. The book develops key Numpy concepts and discusses internal Numpy array data structures and memory usage. Then, the author moves onto Pandas and details its many features for data processing and alignment. Because strong visualizations are important for communicating data analysis, key modules such as Matplotlib are developed in detail, along with web-based options such as Bokeh, Holoviews, Altair, and Plotly.The text is sprinkled with many tricks-of-the-trade that help avoid common pitfalls. The author explains the internal logic embodied in the Python language so that readers can get into the Python mindset and make better design choices in their codes, which is especially helpful for newcomers to both Python and data analysis. To get the most out of this book, open a Python interpreter and type along with the many code samples.
