LEARNING OBJECTIVES
  • Familiarity with the fundamentals of Python 3, including variables, data types, and operators, to write clear and efficient code.
  • The ability to work with Python’s built-in data structures—such as lists, tuples, sets, and dictionaries—to efficiently manage and manipulate data.
  • The ability to create, use, and reuse functions and functional programming concepts to structure your code and solve problems elegantly.
  • An understanding of the basics of OOP, including classes, objects, and inheritance, to create reusable, organized, and scalable code.
  • The ability to manage data and files, handling file input/output and managing resources efficiently.
  • An understanding of advanced language features, including concurrency, coroutines, metaprogramming, and iterators, to write highly performant and sophisticated applications.
