Programming in Python

Meta’s Python fundamentals course. Worked through Python syntax, control flow, and data structures, then up into object-oriented programming, modules, error handling, and writing testable code — the foundations a back-end engineer relies on day-to-day.

• Python syntax, variables, and core data types
• Control flow: conditionals, loops, and comprehensions
• Functions, scope, and reusable code
• Built-in data structures: lists, tuples, sets, dicts
• Object-oriented programming: classes, inheritance, encapsulation
• Modules, packages, and the standard library
• File I/O and exception handling
• Algorithmic thinking and basic problem-solving patterns
