I have a strong dislike to Java albeit started using it from version 1.2 in 1996 and developing POJOs even 6 months ago. Unless I am writing plugins for NiFi or components to Kafka, I would like to stay away from it :-)Originally posted by elsergiovolador View PostDid you land enterprise client?

For the ins and outs of Python including how things like classes and so on actually work, Fluent Python - O'Reilly Media is really the definitive book. Highly recommended.

Python metaprogramming and Abstract base classes courses/books?
I am not completely new to OOP, done a very very brief Metaprogramming in Ruby (pragprog has a fantastic book for Ruby).
Now I am looking for a good Python Metaprogramming and Python abstract base classes (ABC) courses or books. Any recommendations?
