Python Robotics Projects: Build smart and collaborative robots using Python

This a good book for beginners to get into robotics. The projects instructions are very well written and easy to follow.

excellent book

The two first sets of code the book has you write both either result in errors or flat out just don't do what they are intended to do. Doesn't matter if you copy them verbatim from the text. They won't work unless you change them yourselves. The writer tells you to use Broadcom(BCM) in the first code and then changes it to (BOARD) in the next code. The second code doesn't work unless you use BCM, and even then the loop never ends. The text also fails to show the appropriate indent after the range(3): line. The first code wouldn't work because GPIO.out(23.....) needed to be GPIO.ouput(23......), which oddly enough, I figured out because he started using it in the second code. Heck, by the time you make it to the third code, he uses both OUT and OUTPUT. Seriously, do yourself a favor and avoid this absolute train wreck of a book. PackT might want to hire and editor and start some quality control.
