Programming Python in Action

Skillsoft issued completion badges are earned based on viewing the percentage required or receiving a passing score when assessment is required. Python is the fastest-growing, well-known high-level general-purpose dynamic programming language that’s flexible, prevalent, reliable, and simple to learn.  Python offers robust standard libraries that give it an advantage over other languages for developing many types of applications.  The Programming Python in Action Journey starts with the exploration of new features of the latest Python version and learning how to write optimized code following the coding best practices. In the second path, the learners will be building a progressive GUI application using Tkinter, a standard Python GUI library that offers an object-oriented interface to the Tk GUI toolkit.  Moving on, the next path deals with the development of a database-driven web-based application using Web2Py, a stable Python cross-platform MVC framework that is packed with a debugger and a deployment tool. The last path of the journey focuses on working with event-driven AWS lambdas, performing data operations in AWS S3 and Dynamo DB, enabling messaging services, and sending emails via lambdas.
