In this series, Vonne and Justin explore the intricate world of Object-Oriented Programming(OOP), particularly in the context of the Python programming language. Starting with the basics of OOP, Justin demonstrates the creation of classes and associated objects from those classes. Moreover, Justin demonstrates the use of Inheritance of classes to reduce code repetitiveness in an effort to adhere to the Don't Repeat Yourself (DRY) principle. Lastly, Justin builds a simple OOP centric text-based...

Have you wanted to see what this programming thing is all about? Do you have issues figuring out where to start? Well, this course will show you how to get things set up and start with the basics of programming using the Python programming language. If you want to set up your machine, understand the basics of Python, and start understanding the basic tenets of programming, then please join us!

Python has a set of protocols that the language internally adhere to which provides the functionality for features such as iteration, context manager behavior, string representation of an object, and many other things. When you create custom classes in Python and make use of these protocols then you can create custom behavior in the context of iterations, types, comparison of objects, operator overloading, and much more. Knowing about these will help level up your Python skills. If you are...

Python is a great language for learning, writing web applications, and manipulating data. However, Python can be used for security testing as well. In this series, we will explore the use of Python in such concepts as brute force password cracking, making SSH connections programmatically, creating socket connections and port scanner a particular host, banner grabbing from open ports, and more. If that sounds interesting to you, then please join us!

In this series, Daniel and Justin walk you through an in-depth primer on the Python programming language. Whether you have some other programming experience or you are completely new to coding, you will be given the tools necessary to get started writing programs with Python. They cover topics like printing output to the screen, assigning and utilizing variables, getting input from the user, decision making, iteration/loops, creating lists, dictionaries, and tuples, using and creating...

In this series, we creates a RESTful API using the Express web application framework. Justin review the process of setting up a Node-based project as well as installing the Express Node module. After that, Justin discusses important concepts and processes that are key in developing a RESTful API such as creating routes that correspond to data resources, data modeling of those resources, use of middleware to make the API a little more robust, and adding a persistence layer to the API. RESTful...

Part of the power of Python is the array of tools that come built into the language, known as the Python Standard Library. In this series, we take a look at the Standard Library, import from the Standard Library, as well as take a view of some of the more common modules, or parts, of the Standard Library. If you want to dive a little deeper, then we will see you there.

In this series, we will explore the use of community code, or code written by others that to solve a particular problem or provide a particular functionality. We will explore how you can obtain these created solutions to increase your problem solving speed. In order to do so, we will explore the use of tools like pip, pipenv, and conda which are solutions to the fetching and managing of outside dependency requirements. If you are looking to solve bigger and bigger problems or just explore...

In this series, Justin is going to combine the powers of the Express web framework with the power of AngularJS on the front end to create a weather forecast web application. Express will be used to proxy the request from the front end to the DarkSky API that is being consumed as a measure of hiding the credentials that are necessary for making the request. Moreover, Angular will interact with the proxy in order to obtain the information needed to render the application. If you want to see how...
