Abstract
Codes covered in Basic Python were generally limited to short snippets. Intermediate Python will cover concepts that will allow codes to be reused such as developing functions, classes, objects, modules, and packages. Functions are callable modules of code that are written to take in parameters to perform a task and return a value. Decorators and closures can be applied to modify function behaviors. Objects encapsulate both variables and functions into a single entity which are defined in classes. A module in Python is a set of classes or functions that encapsulate a single, and related, set of tasks. Packages are a set of modules collected together into a single focused unit.
