Description

This course is designed to enable you assess your knowledge of Python so that you prepare well for Python Interviews (oral or written). Please note, Interviews do not have any predefined syllabus or structure. It all depends on the interviewer. So, the best way to prepare for interview is to cover all important concepts of the language and fill whatever gaps that exist.In this course, you get questions regarding every important topic of Python language so that you get an overall assessment of your language knowledge.This course is the best way for you to revise and refresh your knowledge of Python before you attend any interview.  This course is not about algorithms and how to implement them in Python, instead, it is about Python language concepts and what is valid and what is not valid in the language. The following are the major topics covered in this course:Language Elements - Data Types, Operators and REPLControl Statements - If statements and Looping structures Data Structures - Strings, Lists, Tuples, Sets and Dictionaries Functions - Parameters of all types, Return type, Passing Parameters,  Nested functions, Variable scopesFunctional Programming  Object Oriented Programming - Classes, Static members, Abstract methods, Special Methods and Inheritance Exception Handling Iterators and Generators File Handling Serialization - Binary and JSONos module Regular Expression - re ModuleDateTime ModuleDatabase Access - DB API 2.0Requests LibraryBeautifulSoup LibraryCollections Module Type Hints Multithreading Features of the course:Each lesson covers one area of the language or library.Read the question and try to answer by pausing the video. Once your answer is ready then resume and get the right answer and understand why it is correct and others are not correct from my explanation. You get a PDF with all questions for each lesson, which includes the code snippets. Do experiment with code snippets in your system to understand where you went you wrong (in case your answer is wrong). This is very important, not just to prepare for interviews, but also to learn language more thoroughly.I used Python version 3.11.5 and PyCharm community edition 2023.2.1. Feel free to use any other editor or IDE.
