Python 2000: Beyond The Basics

Secrets of the Pythonic Masters

Ratings: 4.20 / 5.00




Description

Layered Learning

Never a "one size fits all" approach, our training opportunities are divided into beginner (1000), intermediate (2000), and advanced (3000 - 9000) experience levels. Rather than learning things you might not need to know, you can choose the topics that you are most interested in.  Written by a Principal Trainer & Principal Software Development Engineer, in order to insure mastery key topics are presented several times, as well as at ever-increasing depth. No practice, no glory?

Python Programmers Welcome!

Python 2000 is designed for students with a basic understanding of Python. In Python 2000: Beyond the Basics students will focus upon using Python for creating classes, managing packages & paths, creating frameworks, as well as exploring more advanced & modern topics in Python.


Beyond Functional

Students will complete keyword mastery by exploring a large collection of activity-related topics. Students will enjoy learning how to create Lambdas, Generators, Context Managers, Packages & Modules, Classes, Factories, Frameworks, how to manage Exceptions, as well as other professional programming topics.

Training Approach

I have divided all my training into step-by-step modules. Numbered from 1000 to 9000, the numbering system allows us to skip things that we already know to focus upon the things that we do not.


After completing Python 2000 you are ready to next explore a large collection of activity-related topics. Numbered from 3000 - 9000 rather than learning things you might not need to know, you can choose the topics that you are most interested in.
