IPP-DOC-P02-SUMMARY: Structures, Classes, & Concurrency #6
Description
Part 02: Structures, Classes & Concurrency
About Part 02
Part 02 begins to dig into some key features of Python - data types and structures, objects and classes, and even a bit of concurrency (which allows us to seemingly run multiple things at the same time)..
Part 02 is comprised of three lab modules:
- Lab Module 04: Data types
- Lab Module 05: Objects and classes
- Lab Module 06: Concurrency and asynchronous processing
By the end of Part 02, you should have a deeper understanding of how Python 'works', including how to build modules and compartmentalized functionality, various data types and containers, and the scheduling of asynchronous work.
Part 02 Summary
Key Learning Activities
-
Data types: Learn about Python's key features pertaining to encapsulating different types of data.
-
Objects and Classes: Learn about object-oriented design using classes and how classes can be 'instantiated' into usable object instances.
-
Concurrency and Asynchronous Program Flow: Learn how to perform asynchronous work using concurrent processing.
