Python 3 Deep Dive (Part 1 – Functional) Free Download. Learn Variables, Functions and Functional Programming, Closures, Decorators, Modules and Packages.

In this course series, I will give you a much more fundamental and deeper understanding of the Python language and the standard library.

Python is called a “batteries-included” language for good reason – there is a ton of functionality in base Python that remains to be explored and studied.

So this course is not about explaining my favorite 3rd party libraries – it’s about Python, as a language, and the standard library.

In particular this course is based on the canonical CPython. You will also need Jupyter Notebooks to view the downloadable fully-annotated Python notebooks.

It’s about helping you explore Python and answer questions you are asking yourself as you develop more and more with the language.
