Description
Writing a function that takes a function and returns new, modified function requires solid knowledge how Python functions and closures work. This hands-on workshop takes you step-by-step through the process of writing decorators. Learn how to apply best practices from the start.
You will learn the important principles that you need to fully understand how and why a decorator works the way it does. But this training does not end there. It provides many practical examples that can be used as blueprints for your own decorators.
I have been teaching this material as part of my professional Python trainer career for many years. Therefore, I know the main stumbling blocks that many participants encounter and have refined the material and my training method accordingly.
