Python Data Model

This course features Coursera Coach! A smarter way to learn with interactive, real-time conversations that help you test your knowledge, challenge assumptions, and deepen your understanding as you progress through the course. In this course, you'll explore the Python data model, learning about the core protocols Python uses to enable iteration, context management, string representation, and much more. With practical demonstrations, you will understand the inner workings of custom classes and how Python handles object behavior like iteration, comparison, and operator overloading. Through the modules, you’ll dive deep into creating and managing custom objects, learning how to use special methods for object representation, deletion, and much more. This journey will guide you through powerful tools such as context managers, serialization, and implementing custom container-like behavior. This course is ideal for intermediate Python developers who want to level up their skills. You should have a basic understanding of Python and object-oriented programming. By the end of the course, you will be able to implement custom object behaviors using the Python data model, enhance your code with advanced features, and understand how to use Python's built-in protocols to build more efficient programs.
