Short description	Take your Python beyond the basics: better functions, comprehensions and generators, files and errors, modules and classes, and checking your code. 55 written lessons plus 11 practice downloads.
Outcomes	Write flexible, well-documented functions with default and keyword arguments, args and *kwargs, clear return values and type hints Use list, dictionary and set comprehensions and generators to build and process collections clearly and efficiently Read and write text, CSV and JSON files with pathlib, the csv and json modules, and save data safely Handle errors well: catch specific exceptions, use else and finally, raise your own exceptions and write context managers Organise code into modules and packages, use if __name__ == '__main__', and understand pip and virtual environments in outline Model your data with classes and dataclasses, special methods, properties, inheritance and composition Make good use of the standard library, including collections, itertools, datetime and functools Write readable code in PEP 8 style, refactor long scripts into small functions, and debug problems step by step Check your code with assert and check functions, and build a complete command-line reading-list tracker
Requirements	You should have finished a beginners’ Python course, or know the basics: variables, lists, dictionaries, loops, if and simple functions You should be able to write and run a short Python program in IDLE or a terminal; lesson 1.3 gives a quick refresher A Windows PC or Mac with Python 3.12 or newer from python.org; everything in the course uses only the standard library, so there is nothing else to install
