You wrote a Python script that you’re proud of, and now you want to show it off to the world. But how? Most people won’t know what to do with your .py file. Converting your script into a Python web application is a great solution to make your code usable for a broad audience. In this tutorial, you’ll learn how to go from a local Python script to a fully deployed Flask web application that you can share with the […]
Read moreWhether you’re just getting to know a dataset or preparing to publish your findings, visualization is an essential tool. Python’s popular data analysis library, pandas, provides several different options for visualizing your data with .plot(). Even if you’re at the beginning of your pandas journey, you’ll soon be creating basic plots that will yield valuable insights into your data. In this course, you’ll learn: What the different types of pandas plots are and when to use them How to get […]

To create a GUI for your windows and dialogs in PyQt, you can take two main paths: you can use Qt Designer, or you can hand code the GUI in plain Python code. The first path can dramatically improve your productivity, whereas the second path puts you in full control of your application’s code. GUI applications often consist of a main window and several dialogs. If you’re looking to create these graphical components in an efficient and user-friendly way, then […]

Inner functions, also known as nested functions, are functions that you define inside other functions. In Python, this kind of function has direct access to variables and names defined in the enclosing function. Inner functions have many uses, most notably as closure factories and decorator functions. In this tutorial, you’ll learn how to: Provide encapsulation and hide your functions from external access Write helper functions to facilitate code reuse Create closure factory functions that retain state between calls Code decorator […]
Read morePython supports a wide range of arithmetic operators that you can use when working with numbers in your code. One of these operators is the modulo operator (%), which returns the remainder of dividing two numbers. Modular operations are useful to check if a number is even or odd, simplifying cycling through data, and doing non-decimal based units conversion. In this course, you’ll learn: How modulo works in mathematics How to use the Python modulo operator with different numeric types […]

Microservices are a way to organize complex software systems. Instead of putting all your code into one app, you break your app into microservices that are deployed independently and communicate with each other. This tutorial teaches you how to get up and running with Python microservices using gRPC, one of the most popular frameworks. Implementing a microservices framework well is important. When you’re building a framework to support critical applications, you must ensure it’s robust and developer-friendly. In this tutorial, […]

Learning pandas sort methods is a great way to start with or practice doing basic data analysis using Python. Most commonly, data analysis is done with spreadsheets, SQL, or pandas. One of the great things about using pandas is that it can handle a large amount of data and offers highly performant data manipulation capabilities. In this tutorial, you’ll learn how to use .sort_values() and .sort_index(), which will enable you to sort data efficiently in a DataFrame. By the end […]
Read morePyQt’s layout managers provide a user-friendly and productive way of arranging graphical components, or widgets, on a GUI. Laying out widgets properly will make your GUI applications look polished and professional. Learning to do so efficiently and effectively is a fundamental skill for you to get up and running with GUI application development using Python and PyQt. In this course, you’ll learn: What the benefits are of using PyQt’s layout managers How to programmatically lay out widgets on a GUI […]

Functional programming is a programming paradigm in which the primary method of computation is evaluation of functions. In this tutorial, you’ll explore functional programming in Python. Functional programming typically plays a fairly small role in Python code. But it’s good to be familiar with it. At a minimum, you’ll probably encounter it from time to time when reading code written by others. You may even find situations where it’s advantageous to use Python’s functional programming capabilities in your own code. […]

Knowing how to consume an API is one of those magical skills that, once mastered, will crack open a whole new world of possibilities, and consuming APIs using Python is a great way to learn such a skill. A lot of apps and systems you use on a daily basis are connected to an API. From very simple and mundane things, like checking the weather in the morning, to more addictive and time-consuming actions, such as scrolling through your Instagram, […]
