Core Python: Abstract Base Classes

This course will teach you how to apply and reason about Python’s support for abstract base classes and virtual inheritance.

Abstract base classes assist in many different areas within Python. In this course, Core Python: Abstract Base Classes, you’ll learn to work with and design programs using Python support for abstract base classes. First, you’ll explore the concept of abstract base classes along with Python’s core support for it. Next, you’ll discover parts of Python’s standard library that help you work with abstract base classes. Finally, you’ll learn how to use abstract methods in your class designs. When you’re finished with this course, you’ll have the skills and knowledge of abstract classes and virtual inheritance needed to apply them in your designs and work with code that uses them.
