📂 Project: Teaching
⭐ Priority: MEDIUM
Session Goal
The goal of this session was to deepen understanding of various Python programming concepts, including classes, namespaces, scopes, threading, and course design for Python education.
Key Activities
- Explored the concept of classes in Python, focusing on their structure, attributes, and methods, and compared them with classes in other programming languages.
- Used analogies to explain Python namespaces and scopes, enhancing clarity on variable access and modification.
- Discussed the use of
globalandnonlocalkeywords in Python with practical examples. - Examined the creation of a custom class for complex numbers, applying object-oriented programming principles.
- Suggested improvements for thread synchronization in Python code by replacing shared sets with Queues.
- Developed strategies for optimizing a two-week Python course and a 12-hour Data Science crash course.
Achievements
- Achieved a comprehensive understanding of Python classes, namespaces, and threading best practices.
- Formulated educational strategies for Python and Data Science courses.
Pending Tasks
- Implement the threading improvements in existing Python projects.
- Finalize and test the course outlines for the Python and Data Science sessions.
