Students learn basic logic and programming concepts before moving into object-oriented programming, and GUI programming. <br>  <br> Another aspect of <b> <i>Introduction to Programming Using Python </i> </b>is that in addition to the typical programming examples that feature games and some math, Liang gives an example or two early in the chapter that uses a simple graphic to engage the students. Rather than asking them to average 10 numbers together, they learn the concepts in the context of a fun example that generates something visually interesting. <br>   <br> Using the graphics examples is optional in this textbook. Turtle graphics can be used in Chapters 1-5 to introduce the fundamentals of programming and Tkinter can be used for developing comprehensive graphical user interfaces and for learning object-oriented programming.</p> <p style="margin:0px;"> </p>
