We'll start with the language basics after which we discuss various testing strategies and their rationale. Through lectures, exercises and discussions, we'll introduce Concurrency and Parallelism after which we'll learn about GUI's. We'll then explore Networking, XML processing and Persistence when developing applications with Python. On the final day of this Python course, you'll work on an example of Python DSL, we'll learn about Python extensions and extension testing and we'll finish the course with an introduction to Django, Python Web Application frameworks and how to use dynamic techniques.
