The ANIMA Deck is a utility and principle that allows you to retain a small stack of cards in order, no matter how many times a deck of playing cards is shuffled overhand by either yourself or your participants.The ANIMA Deck is a utility and principle that allows you to retain a small stack of cards in order, no matter how many times a deck of playing cards is shuffled overhand by either yourself or your participants.Imagine at the beginning of your set being able to instruct your spectator to take out cards relevant to their life such as their date of birth, PIN number, phone unlock code or any other small string of numerical information. Instruct them to focus on each of these cards in turn to help them better focus on the information. You ask them to return each of these cards back to the deck which is then cut and shuffled overhand as many times as the spectator wishes or until the spectator and everyone else watching is satisfied the cards are truly lost in the deck. Yet, you will always be able to obtain this information at any point in your set, even after performing other effects with multiple spectators further shuffling the deck - in between the spectator unknowingly setting the deck and your subsequent glimpse of this information.
NO threads. NO magnets. NO rough and smooth. NO sticky substances and nothing added to the deck. Everything is self-contained within the ANIMA Deck.
Its ingenious secret does all of the work for you.
This deck allows for a delayed glimpse of information in a kind of real time pre-show that takes place during your close-up set.
You will also be able to use the deck to perform other effects and then whenever you decide to do so, obtain the information that is stored and retained in perfect order by the deck itself.
You will receive 1 ANIMA Deck made up of Bicycle back USPCC standard Poker size cards, as well as an accompanying PDF explaining how to use the deck in performance. You will also learn how to construct your own decks for future use.

Great book!
Format: Paperback
Great book! I really like how the instructions are explained in the book and how it encourages you to both use the terminal / python interpreter and make files in vscode. This book can be used for intermediate python programmers and brand new programs. for the intermediate people, its a good refresher of the basics, and by the end you will definitely KNOW, KNOW them. I got this book in prep for new grad job applications, code assessments, game jams, and general practice. So I think you would do good to get this book at any level if you really want to get the basics down and know them!

One of the best Python books
Format: Paperback
I bought 5 Python books as I needed to learn the language quickly for an upcoming project. Of all the books that I purchased, I found this one to be the best. It starts out with the basics and works its way through more complicated areas. Each chapter builds well upon the other. There is very little redundancy, and I was able to get through the book in about a week. I have a background in software development, so this book was able to show me how Python implements different concepts that I already knew, but I think a beginner would also be comfortable with the material.

Honestly, I never thought I would enjoy studying this much!
Format: Paperback, Format: Paperback
I was so grateful for this book's excellence that I opened the Amazon website during my break to write a review.
I wanted to brush up on my skills before taking my first Python class in the fall, so I was looking for a beginner's book I could study on my own over the summer. Since I had no coding experience, I needed a book that explained even the smallest details step-by-step. I've been studying with the goal of completing two chapters a week since August. I'm currently on Chapter 8, and it's been so much fun! Honestly, I never thought I would enjoy studying this much.
I spent two days on practice problem 8-8 (though I spent most of the time lying on the couch screaming, "Why can't I do this?" than actually solving the problem). However, after some time, I reconsidered and re-tested the problem, and today, on the third day, I finally figured out what the issue was! I resisted the urge to ask AI or look at the GitHub code the author had posted. Instead, I solely relied on the book to solve the problem. The information in the book was more than enough. I'm proud of myself!
If you're a beginner like me and just starting out with Python, I highly recommend this book! It seems unlikely I'll be able to finish all the remaining chapters and projects before the fall semester, but I'd like to take the time over the weekend to finish this book if possible. I have no doubt that the detailed, helpful explanations and systematic practice problems will help me solidify my fundamental Python coding skills.
