Advanced course on Python3

This course covers several topics

• Python decorators
• The python object system / meta classes
• Also see my text on Python import system

Each lesson is a python program, the output of that program is the rendered markdown text that makes up the lesson. This approach gives me some confidence about the quality of the material.

I am using a kind of literate programming tool developed for this course. The tool is right here in this repository, in the mdformat package

The main function of the mdformat package is eval_and_quote(string_arg). This function does the following steps:

1. Renders the argument string as a code snippet
2. Evaluates the string argument as a python script, with the global variable context of the calling module
3. Renders the result of evaluating the code (both standard output and standard error)

There is also print_md(*args) - this shows the outut as a markdown regular text section

header_md(line, nesting=1) - this renders the line as a header

print_quoted(*args) - shows the aguments as markdown quoted text
