This book presents five beginner-to-intermediate level projects inspired by real world use cases:

• Enhance your CLI experience with a custom Python calculator
• Analyzing poll data from a Reddit comment thread
• Finding typos in plain text and Markdown files
• Creating a GUI for evaluating multiple choice questions
• Square Tic Tac Toe — creating a GUI game with AI logic

To test your understanding and to make it more interesting, you'll also be presented with exercises at the end of each project. Resources for further exploration are also mentioned throughout the book. Visithttps://youtu.be/5whwiiURWS8 for a short video about the book.
