Python for Strong Pythonistas
Contents
start
Aimed at Python Programmers who have strong experience, you probably want to know more about what's under the hood
goals
This series is tiny right now (only decorators) - please help us expand it
Background Material
You've already viewed the Python Programming for Intermediates series, haven't you?
Aimed at Intermediate Python Programmers, you know the basics and want to see how real programs are constructed
You will understand how to structure larger programs and you'll have some full examples to work through
We only have 1 series at the moment aimed at experienced Pythonistas - we'd love to have more!
We need more Python videos for Experienced Pythonistas
Experienced Pythonistas have little new meat in ShowMeDo, it would be great to have videos showing topics like the garbage collector, more on decorators, meta-programming, how the internals of Python's files are arranged, how the VM works, writing Python bytecode, optimising code, using Psyco/ShedSkin/PyPy.
Florian shows you decorators, a powerful technique for adding new functionality to existing method with a little sprinkling of magic.
Advanced Python shows advanced Python techniques like decorators.
And Now...
To continue your education, take a look here:
You'll need to know how to write Python using Python 2.x.
You will have seen Python 3.0 in action and you'll know some of the key differences between 2.x and 3.0.
You know basic Python and have an interest in scientific coding.
You'll know how to use Python for math and physics and you'll have tools that are similar to Matlab/Maple.
You know the basics of programming Python
You'll know how to use wxPython, easyGui and PythonCard to build Graphical User Interfaces
You know at least a bit about Python programming
You will have an overview of the main Python IDEs and tools
