Learning
intermediate level if you're focused and structured in your approach. Here's a detailed 5-day plan
to help you:
Goal: Learn Python's core syntax, data types, and control structures.
1. Topics to Cover:
o Functions:
Defining functions with def.
Arguments and return values.
Default and keyword arguments.
o Modules and Packages:
Importing standard modules like math, os, and random.
Creating and importing custom modules.
o File Handling:
Reading and writing files (open, read, write, with).
2. Practice:
o Write a function to calculate the factorial of a number.
o Create a module with utility functions and use it in a main script.
o Read a text file, count the number of words, and write the result to another file.
3. Resources:
o Python Functions Tutorial
o Python File I/O.
1. Topics to Cover:
o Classes and Objects:
Creating classes and objects.
Instance variables and methods.
o OOP Principles:
Encapsulation, inheritance, and polymorphism.
Special methods like __init__, __str__, and __repr__.
o Error Handling:
Try-except blocks.
Custom exceptions.
2. Practice:
o Create a Student class with attributes like name and grades.
