Courses Plus Student 33,192 PointsI would say,
Python Pocket Reference, depending on what python version you use; go for the 5th if you use any py version over 3.4.I say this because the book is 8 X 4 inches in size but 200 + pages.
Carry it on your back, pop it open when you need help on basic-intermediate-quasi-advanced python.
You wont regret, it it's also cheap, look it up online first.
