This is the repository for the LinkedIn Learning course Python Standard Library Essential Training. The full course is available from LinkedIn Learning.

Python is a concise, elegant language. And part of what makes it so accessible and fun to use is the library of prebuilt code—known as the Python standard library—that’s distributed along with the language. In this course, learn how to leverage the modules in the Python standard library to make building applications with Python even easier. Discover how the Python standard library can help you solve common coding challenges and make it easier to process text, manipulate data, and work with files and directories. Plus, see how the library can help you work with numbers, calculate and format dates and times, parse HTML, and more.

This course also includes Code Challenges powered by CoderPad. Code Challenges are interactive coding exercises with real-time feedback, so you can get hands-on coding practice alongside the course content to advance your programming skills.

See the readme file in the main branch for updated instructions and information.
