Object-oriented programming (OOP) is a popular design paradigm in which data and behaviors are encapsulated in such a way that they can be manipulated together. This third edition of Python 3 Object-Oriented Programming fully explains classes, data encapsulation, and exceptions with an emphasis on when you can use each principle to develop well-designed software.

What You Will Learn

• Implement objects in Python by creating classes and defining methods
• Grasp common concurrency techniques and pitfalls in Python 3
• Extend class functionality using inheritance
• Understand when to use object-oriented features, and more importantly when not to use them
• Discover what design patterns are and why they are different in Python
• Uncover the simplicity of unit testing and why it's so important in Python
• Explore concurrent object-oriented programming

By the end of the book, you will have thoroughly learned object-oriented principles using Python syntax and be able to create robust and reliable programs confidently.
