Learn Autonomous Programming with Python

The current industry (also called Industry 4.0) has witnessed an unprecedented expansion of technology in a short span of time, owing to an exponential increase in computational power coupled with internet technology. Consequently, domains like artificial intelligence, machine learning, deep learning and robotic process automation have gained prominence and become the backbone of organizations, making it inevitable for professionals to upgrade their skills in these domains.

Orchestrate your work with AI and ML. Learn RPAs power, conduct web symphonies, utilize spreadsheets, and automate emails. You can also extract data from PDFs and images, choreograph applications, and play with deep learning. Design workflows, create hyperautomation finales, and combine Python with UiPath. You can further build a solid stage for your projects with PyScript, and continue with test automation.

This book equips you to revolutionize your work, one Python script at a time. This book can be used as ready to reference as well as a user manual for quick solutions to common organizational needs and even for brushing up on key technical domain concepts.
