In this course you will learn about the best practices, standardization, and coding conventions in the Python Language.

You will learn about PEP 8 and how to implement the conventions for code comprising the standard library in the main Python distribution. You will also learn about the Zen of Python (PEP 20) and the principles that influence the design of Python code. Finally, you will get familiary with PEP 257 and the docstring conventions.

After the course you will know how to implement the best coding practices and conventions using the Python language professionally. You will be able to write a better and more effective code, and know how to avoid the most common errors and mistakes.
