Online course - Learning Path: Python: Programming for Python Users by Udemy

As a Python user, have you felt the need to use the programming features of this powerful language? You definitely would want to do more than just using Python commands and use its code to make your work easy. If this is the case, this Learning Path is for you.

It’s no NEWS that Python is the market-standard tool for data science. However, it’s worth mentioning that Python has made a huge impact in the programming world. Python is a widely used high-level, general-purpose, interpreted, dynamic programming language.

Python: Programming for Python Users is Packt’s Video Learning Path that is a series of individual video products put together in a logical and stepwise manner such that each video builds on the skills learned in the video before it.

This Learning Path first introduces the Unity engine. It shows how to use the interface and how to build levels, and culminates in the creation of a simple game. The core features and fundamentals are explored in a fun and practical way, encouraging the development of real-world projects while establishing a solid understanding of game development principles.

This Learning Path starts with the essentials of Python programming. This will touch upon 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.

Then, you’ll be introduced to the world of parallel computing. Explore thread-based parallelism model using the Python threading module by synchronizing threads and using locks, mutex, semaphores queues, GIL, and the thread pool. Moving on, you’ll get to grips with the asynchronous parallel programming model using the Python asyncio module, and will see how to handle exceptions. You will discover distributed computing with Python, and learn how to install a broker, use Celery Python Module, and create a worker.

The course focuses on building 4 fun projects from scratch with easy-to-understand explanations and practical applications. You’ll learn how to create a well-designed architecture and increase performance of the current applications. You will learn how to build enterprise ready applications with the Python language.

The goal of this course is to make you proficient at Python programming, able to make projects from scratch.
