The latest in modern Python recipes for the busy programmerAbout This VideoDevelop succinct, expressive programs in PythonGet to know the best practices and common idioms through carefully explained and structured videosDiscover new ways to apply Python for the new age of developmentIn DetailPython is the preferred choice of developers, engineers, data scientists, and hobbyists everywhere. It is a great scripting language that can power your applications and provide great speed, safety, and scalability. By exposing Python as a series of simple recipes, you can gain insight into specific language features in a particular context. Having a tangible context helps make the language or standard library features easier to understand. This video comes with over 100 recipes on the latest version of Python.The videos will touch on all the necessary Python concepts related to data structures, OOP, functional programming, as well as statistical programming. You will get acquainted with the nuances of Python syntax and how to effectively use the advantages that it offers.You will be armed with the knowledge of creating applications with flexible logging, powerful configuration, and command-line options, automated unit tests, and good documentation.You will end the book equipped with the knowledge of testing, web services, and configuration and application integration tips and tricks.
