ATC-PCAP - Certified Associate in Python Programming Certification
ATC-PCAP - Certified Associate in Python Programming Certification
Overview
Duration: 3.0 days
PCAP – Certified Associate in Python Programming certification is a professional credential that measures your ability to accomplish coding tasks related to the basics of programming in the Python language and the fundamental notions and techniques used in object-oriented programming.
PCAP – Certified Associate in Python Programming certification shows that the individual is familiar with general computer programming concepts like conditional execution, loops, Python programming language syntax, semantics, and the runtime environment, as well as with general coding techniques and object-oriented programming.
Becoming PCAP certified ensures that the individual is fully acquainted with all the primary means provided by Python 3 to enable her/him to start her/his own studies, and to open a path to the developer’s career.

Module 2: Data Aggregates
Objectives covered by the module:
· strings in detail: ASCII, UNICODE, UTF-8, immutability, escaping using the \ character, quotes and apostrophes inside strings, multiline strings, copying vs. cloning, advanced slicing, string vs. string, string vs. non-string, basic string methods (upper(), lower(), isxxx(), capitalize(), split(), join(), etc.) and functions (len(), chr(), ord()), escape characters
· lists in detail: indexing, slicing, basic methods (append(), insert(), index()) and functions (len(), sorted(), etc.), del instruction, iterating lists with the for loop, initializing, in and not in operators, list comprehension, copying and cloning
· lists in lists: matrices and cubes
· tuples: indexing, slicing, building, immutability
· tuples vs. lists: similarities and differences, lists inside tuples and tuples inside lists
· dictionaries: building, indexing, adding and removing keys, iterating through dictionaries as well as their keys and values, checking key existence, keys(), items() and values() methods
Module 3: Functions and Modules
Objectives covered by the module:
· defining and invoking your own functions and generators
· return and yield keywords, returning results, the None keyword, recursion
· parameters vs. arguments, positional keyword and mixed argument passing, default parameter values
· converting generator objects into lists using the list() function
· name scopes, name hiding (shadowing), the global keyword
· lambda functions, defining and using
· map(), filter(), reduce(), reversed(), sorted() functions and the sort() method
· the if operator
· import directives, qualifying entities with module names, initializing modules
· writing and using modules, the __name variable
· pyc file creation and usage
· constructing and distributing packages, packages vs. directories, the role of the
init .py file
· hiding module entities
· Python hashbangs, using multiline strings as module documentation
Module 4: Classes, Objects, and Exceptions
Objectives covered by the module:
· defining your own classes, superclasses, subclasses, inheritance, searching for missing class components, creating objects
· class attributes: class variables and instance variables, defining, adding and removing attributes, explicit constructor invocation
· class methods: defining and using, the self parameter meaning and usage
· inheritance and overriding, finding class/object components
· single inheritance vs. multiple inheritance
· name mangling
· invoking methods, passing and using the self argument/parameter
· the init method
· the role of the str__ method
· introspection: dict , name__, module__, bases properties, examining class/object structure
· writing and using constructors
· hasattr(), type(), issubclass(), isinstance(), super() functions
· using predefined exceptions and defining your own ones
· the try-except-else-finally block, the raise statement, the except-as variant
· exceptions hierarchy, assigning more than one exception to one except branch
· adding your own exceptions to an existing hierarchy
· assertions
