Look inside

A programmer with some experience in other languages can skip a step or two, bypass beginner programming topics and focus on the unique things Python 3 can do. That's what we'll do here. We’ll work with Python 3's core modules, collections, objects, and built-in functions. We’ll also cover more-advanced concepts, such as lambdas, sorting, enumerations, slicing, f-strings, comprehensions, reporting, testing. And we’ll do all this in under two hours!

By creating first class functions, using command-lines, and exploring many new cross-platform DevOps Demonstrations, you will discover how to get the most out of modern Python as rapidly, as well as responsibly, as possible. We’ll try out new features and updates of the ever-evolving language, including Python's new walrus operator and match case keyword set.
