Book Review: Guide to Learning Python Decorators
by Amit
Matt Harrison’s Guide to: Learning Python decorators is a mini-book dedicated to the topic of decorators in Python.
He starts off with a brief introduction to programming paradigms and subsequently introducing the concept of Python supporting first-class functions. He talks about function attributes, scope in functions and nested functions. Next, he introduces the topic of function arguments/parameters, the * and ** operators and related concepts.
(I like the way he builds up the book, starting from the very basics of functions)
Next, he introduces the concept of closures in a very easy fashion. Reading this chapter you will feel ‘Huh? That’s it?’.
Finally, he comes to the chapter on decorators. First he introduces a simple decorator; then he talks about decorators with parameters, multiple decorators and ends with simple uses of decorators.
Short and sweet.
Programming and writing about it. 
Hey, thanks for the review! Glad that you found it short and sweet! That was intentional :)
