Python Essentials (Beginner to Intermediate)
This foundational series covers all the core concepts you need to write clean, reliable Python code, ideal for beginners and those looking to brush up on fundamentals.
Topics Covered
- Introduction to Python — What is Python, why learn it, installation (Python, pip, Jupyter), and your first script.
Start Introduction - Python Basics — Syntax, variables, data types (ints, floats, booleans, strings, bytes), casting, and comments.
- Operators & Expressions — Arithmetic, comparison, logical, assignment, membership, and identity operators.
- Control Flow — Conditions (
if
,elif
,else
), loops (for
,while
), and loop controls (break
,continue
,pass
). - Functions — Defining functions, arguments (positional, default,
*args
,**kwargs
), return values, scope, lambdas, and recursion. - Data Structures — Lists (indexing, slicing, methods, comprehensions), tuples, sets, dictionaries (and dict comprehensions).
- Intermediate Python — Imports & modules, built-in modules overview, command-line args with
argparse
, environment variables. - Object-Oriented Programming (OOP) — Classes, objects, instance/class/static methods, inheritance, encapsulation, special methods (
__init__
,__str__
, etc.). - Error Handling — Syntax vs runtime errors,
try/except/else/finally
Specific exceptions, including custom exceptions. - Data Input & Output — Text files,
with
context manager, CSV (csv
), JSON (json
), XML (xml.etree.ElementTree
), pickle/parquet basics, and API JSON withrequests
. - Debugging, Testing & Best Practices — Print vs
pdb
,logging
basics, assertions, intro to unit tests, Pythonic style & PEP 8, docstrings. - Packaging & Distribution — Virtual environments (
venv
), project layout,setuptools
,pyproject.toml
, installing withpip
.

Advanced Python (Deep Dive)
After the essentials, deepen your knowledge with advanced concepts, internals, and performance techniques to build robust, production-grade Python applications.
Topics Covered
- Iterators, Generators & Decorators — Custom iterators, generator patterns, and practical decorators (function & class).
- Context Managers & Descriptors — Master the
with
statement, build custom context managers, and understand descriptor protocols. - Advanced OOP & Design Patterns — Multiple inheritance & MRO, abstract base classes, mixins, and common patterns (Factory, Strategy, Observer, etc.).
- Memory Management & Performance — Garbage collection (
gc
), profiling (cProfile
,timeit
), caching (functools.lru_cache
), and a quick NumPy performance intro. - Metaprogramming & Internals — Introspection (
inspect
), dynamic attributes (getattr
,setattr
), metaclasses, and Python internals. - Advanced Testing & Debugging —
pytest
fixtures & parametrize, mocking/patching (unittest.mock
), logging configs for large projects. - Tooling & Productivity — Type hints and static checks (
mypy
), formatting (black
), linting (flake8
), dependency management (poetry
,pip-tools
), pre-commit hooks. - Working with Databases & Binary Data —
sqlite3
, SQLAlchemy ORM basics, and binary parsing withstruct
. - Security & Deployment — Secrets management (
.env
), hashing & encryption basics (hashlib
,cryptography
), packaging for production (wheels), and Dockerizing Python apps. - Concurrency & Parallelism — Threads (
threading
), processes (multiprocessing
), and async foundations (optional).
