Intermediate Python 3.x

Summary

Once students have mastered the basics of Python via our introductory Python course or their own work, it's time to move on to applying Python to daily programming needs. This course picks up where our Introduction to Python leaves off, covering some topics in more detail, and adding many new ones, with a focus on enterprise development.

This is a hands-on programming class. All concepts are reinforced by informal practice during the lecture followed by lab exercises. Many labs build on earlier labs, which helps students retain the earlier material.
