Mastering Python - Second Edition

Daniel Arbuckle



Unlock the power of Python by learning effective application development strategies

Python is one of the most powerful, flexible, and popular programming languages in the world. It comes with all new features in version 3.5. With Python, you can write code that is efficient, maintainable, and reusable.

In this second edition of the course, we cover the basics of operating in a Python development environment as well as the advanced topics. We present you with real-world solutions to Python 3.5 and advanced-level concepts such as reactive programming and microservices, introduce ctypes and Cython tools.

You don't need to be familiar with the Python language as we start with Python primer and move on to explain what’s new in Python 3.5. You’ll get ready to install, create packages, and run them on the command line. Throughout the journey, we'll highlight the major aspects of managing your Python development environment, show you how to handle parallel computation, and help you to master asynchronous I/O with new Python 3.5 to improve the performance of your system.

Finally, you'll learn the secrets of metaprogramming and unit testing in Python—arming you with the perfect skillset to be a Python expert. This course will get you up to speed in everything from basic programming practices to high-end tools and techniques, things that will help you set apart as a successful Python programmer.
