Description

On occasion, the fundamental control-flow structures of Python can feel clumsy or limiting. This course will teach you extensions and alternatives to these basic structures that can help your code be easier to write and more likely to be correct.

What You'll Learn?

Complex flow control structures can be hard to write and harder to read. In this course, Core Python 3: Advanced Flow Control, you’ll learn to apply alternative techniques for flow control. First, you’ll explore loop-else clauses. Next, you’ll discover try-else clauses. Finally, you’ll learn how to perform mutli-way branching and leverage short-circuit evaluation. When you’re finished with this course, you’ll have the skills and knowledge of advanced Python flow control needed to create elegant, understandable, and fast programs.
