Hello I am learning Python for in the pass ten months, and have brought a few books about Python. Most of them are good books by its only right, and all of them only teach you how to write Python programs using Python syntax and Python ways, but no one single Python book explicitly teaches you on how to analyst your application, and structure your programmes in a way, so that, it is easy to maintain, easily to reuse, (i.e. use loosely couple), and easily to extend or add new features (programming to Interface instead of Implementation) without introduce bugs into your existing working codes.
I recently brought a book called "Head First Design Patterns" published by O'reilly. This book is simply a gem. It shows you how to use and apply Design Patterns to analyst and structure your code, so that, the programs can be easy maintains, reuse, modify and extend. (It is the books I have been looking for a long time while I am learning Python, but cannot find one). The only caveat about this book is that the authors use Java (not Python) in the examples. I wonder, can any Python guru out there translate the Java examples in the book into Python examples, or write a similar book in Python, perhaps called "Head First Design Patterns in Python". I think, this will be a great addition to Python books, and a great benefit to Python community. P.S. I am not sure is this the right news group to post this request. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
