Python for Quants is the first book-series in the market that takes you from the absolute beginner level in Python programming towards instant applications in Quantitative Analysis, Mathematics, Statistics, Data Analysis, Finance, and Algo Trading. Written with passion, this book of unprecedented quality and in-depth coverage teaches you the essentials of Python that allow you to start coding your ideas, models, and solving complex problems straight away!
It's more Python than quants. I believe better learning is when you program along the theory. Still, purely accidentally I was searching for more information on PRNG for Monte Carlo simulator, and this book was helpful in this case.
I love how author very careful about to use python for computation the correct way and explain it in very detailed, one downside is not a book it's self it's about title i would rate this 5 star if it named "Python for Computation" or "Python for Quantitative Task" etc
Great book, very thorough; lots of exercises and easy to read. Some good examples explaining conceptual ideas, even for those who haven't done maths in awhile. Can't wait for vol.2
