Learning Python Application Development
Take Python beyond scripting to build robust, reusable, and efficient applicationsAbout This Book• Get to grips with Python techniques that address commonly encountered problems in general application development.• Develop, package, and deploy efficient applications in a fun way.• All-practical coverage of the major areas of application development, including best practices, exception handling, testing, refactoring, design patterns, performance, and GUI application development.Who This Book Is ForDo you know the basics of Python and object oriented programming? Do you want to go an extra mile and learn techniques to make your Python application robust, extensible, and efficient? Then this book is for you.What You Will Learn• Build a robust application by handling exceptions.• Modularize, package, and release the source distribution.• Document the code and implement coding standards.• Create automated tests to catch bugs in the early development stage.• Identify and re-factor badly written code to improve application life.• Detect recurring problems in the code and apply design patterns.• Improve code efficiency by identifying performance bottlenecks and fixing them.• Develop simple GUI applications using Python.In DetailPython is one of the most widely used dynamic programming languages, supported by a rich set of libraries and frameworks that enable rapid development. But fast paced development often comes with its own baggage that could bring down the quality, performance, and extensibility of an application. This book will show you ways to handle such problems and write better Python applications.From the basics of simple command-line applications, develop your skills all the way to designing efficient and advanced Python apps. Guided by a light-hearted fantasy learning theme, overcome the real-world problems of complex Python development with practical solutions. Beginning with a focus on robustness, packaging, and releasing application code, you'll move on to focus on improving application lifetime by making code extensible, reusable, and readable. Get to grips with Python refactoring, design patterns and best practices. Techniques to identify the bottlenecks and improve performance are covered in a series of chapters devoted to performance, before closing with a look at developing Python GUIs.Style and approachThe book uses a fantasy game theme as a medium to explain various topics. Specific aspects of application development are explained in different chapters. In each chapter the reader is presented with an interesting problem which is then tackled using hands-on examples with easy-to-follow instructions.

Python: Master the Art of Design Patterns
Ensure your code is sleek, efficient and elegant by mastering powerful Python design patternsAbout This Book* Learn all about abstract design patterns and how to implement them in Python 3* Understand the structural, creational, and behavioral Python design patterns* Get to know the context and application of design patterns to solve real-world problems in software architecture, design, and application development* Discover how to simplify Design Pattern implementation using the power of Python 3Who This Book Is ForIf you have basic Python skills and wish to learn in depth how to correctly apply appropriate design patterns, this course is tailor made for you.What You Will Learn* Discover what design patterns are and how to apply them to writing Python* Implement objects in Python by creating classes and defining methods* Separate related objects into a taxonomy of classes and describe the properties and behaviors of those objects via the class interface* Understand when to use object-oriented features, and more importantly when not to use them* Get to know proven solutions to common design issues* Explore the design principles that form the basis of software design, such as loose coupling, the Hollywood principle, and the Open Close principle, among others* Use Structural Design Patterns and find out how objects and classes interact to build larger applications* Improve the productivity and code base of your application using Python design patterns* Secure an interface using the Proxy patternIn DetailPython is an object-oriented scripting language that is used in everything from data science to web development. Known for its simplicity, Python increases productivity and minimizes development time. Through applying essential software engineering design patterns to Python, Python code becomes even more efficient and reusable from project to project.This learning path takes you through every traditional and advanced design pattern best applied to Python code, building your skills in writing exceptional Python. Divided into three distinct modules, you'll go from foundational to advanced concepts by following a series of practical tutorials.Start with the bedrock of Python programming - the object-oriented paradigm. Rethink the way you work with Python as you work through the Python data structures and object-oriented techniques essential to modern Python programming. Build your confidence as you learn Python syntax, and how to use OOP principles with Python tools such as Django and Kivy.In the second module, run through the most common and most useful design patterns from a Python perspective. Progress through Singleton patterns, Factory patterns, Facade patterns and more all with detailed hands-on guidance. Enhance your professional abilities in in software architecture, design, and development.In the final module, run through the more complex and less common design patterns, discovering how to apply them to Python coding with the help
