Target Audience

Top

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.

Course Objectives

Top

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.
