Advanced Python
Python decorators, metaprogramming, descriptors, GIL mechanics, asyncio asynchronous event loop, and C extension modules.
Lexical closures, closure cell internals, decorator desugaring, functools.wraps, and class-based decorators.
Decorators, Closures & Function Metaprogramming
Master first-class function mechanics, lexical closures, decorator factories, and metadata preservation.
Descriptor protocol, data vs non-data descriptors, attribute lookup order, metaclasses, and __init_subclass__.
Descriptors, Metaclasses & Dynamic Object Creation
Understand CPython attribute lookup order, the descriptor protocol (__get__, __set__), and class creation via metaclasses.
Global Interpreter Lock (GIL), thread switching intervals, generators to coroutines, and asyncio event loop internals.
GIL Mechanics, Concurrency & Asyncio Event Loops
Master CPython GIL mechanics, evaluate threading versus multiprocessing, and understand cooperative asyncio event loops.
PyMalloc arena/pool/block memory architecture, __slots__ optimization, cyclic GC tri-color marking, and C extensions.
Memory Profiling, C-Extensions & Performance
Master CPython PyMalloc architecture, __slots__ memory reduction, generational garbage collection, and native C extension acceleration.
