Python Programming 2

PDF
Course Duration: 3 Days

Course Overview

The Python Programming 2 course comprises sessions dealing with advanced object orientation, iterators and generators, comprehensions, decorators, multithreading, functional programming, web services, and unit testing.

The delegate will learn how to exploit advanced features of the Python language to build complex and efficient applications.

Exercises and examples are used throughout the course to give practical hands-on experience with the techniques covered.

The delegate will learn and acquire skills as follows:

Encapsulating classes
Exploiting polymorphism using inheritance and mixins
Associating objects via composition and aggregation
Working with static members
Using iterators as an alternative to for
Constructing custom iterators
Constructing functions that yield generators
Manipulating lists, sets, and dictionaries using comprehension
Exploiting aspect oriented programming using decorators
Writing multithreaded code
Sharing data between threads
Processing collections using lambdas
Building RESTful clients
Building RESTful APIs
Testing units of code

Course Objectives

    • This course aims to provide the delegate with the knowledge to be able to interpret, write, and troubleshoot complex Python applications exploiting inheritance and polymorphism, mixins, composition and aggregation, iterators, generators, decorators, comprehension, concurrency, functional programming, and RESTful web services.

Prerequisites

    • Delegates should be able to build Python applications that exploit all fundamental elements of the language including variables and expressions, conditions and loops, functions, objects, and lists.

      This knowledge can be gained by attendance on the pre-requisite Python Programming 1 course.

Target Audience for this Course

    • The Python Programming 2 course is designed for existing Python developers who have a good grounding in the basics and want to exploit some of the advanced features of the language.

      For the delegate for whom Python is their first programming language, we recommend taking the Python Programming 1 course first, then taking some time to practice the skills gained, before returning to take the Python Programming 2 course.

All aspects of the course were very valuable.

G.S. Northern Power Grid, Microsoft Power BI Desktop

[The trainer] was very patient with us and was always interested in how we have done things in the past and gave a very honest opinion and honest feedback. Thank you very much.

P. , Computers for Beginners and Getting Started with MS Officeltbr gt

Which part of the course did you find particularly valuable All of the course. A lot of these are tips that I will use every now and then, and some i.e. quick paths are ones I will begin using regularly.

C. Gachet, Managing your Inbox using Microsoft Outlook

All of the course gave me new knowledge

C.B. CMR UK Ltd, Excel Level 3

I know how to do formula's now so that's really going to help me day to day. I also know lots of short cuts now too.

L.D. , Excel Level 1

I have learnt a lot of new skills which I shall try to put into practice.
