Learning Python is an exciting journey. Once you have completed Python I, or another introductory course, you will quickly discover that the more familiar you become with Python, the more you will enjoy applying it and the more you will want to learn about its more advanced features.
This workshop is designed to take beginners to the next level beyond the basics, to help them gain more confidence in their Python programming skills, become more proficient in Python and also prepare for the PCAP certification should they decide to pursue it.
The workshop will cover: modules, packages, and PIP, character encoding, strings and string processing, generators, iterators, closures, files, file streams, file processing, exception hierarchies, and exception classes and objects, and working with selected Standard Library modules.
In addition, it also explores and discusses the fundamentals of the Object-Oriented Programming (OOP) approach.
