I have desk review copy, think many will appreciate the quasi-seamless
blend of old and gnu world typographies, i.e. sigma and set notation,
with concepts of iterator, types, functions etc.

Reminiscent of 'Concrete Mathematics' though less difficult and
explicitly Python based.

For those training to read algebra, higher math, this is a friendly
introduction (no cartoons or comics though -- gets you prepared for
the somber dryness of the ambient literature).
