This course is designed to introduce you to object orientated programming in Python.
As an object orientated language, every variable used in Python is an object. This course will cover:
- what is meant by objects
- how to create user-defined classes to hold data
- how to expand and enhance user-defined classes to perform important functions
The course will also provide a greater understanding of how commonly used Python packages are set up and the background work involved.
