Python OOP — Classes & Objects (Tutorial Series #8.1) — An introduction to object-oriented programming in Python — the module where Pune fresher developers consistently level up their code. Part of our full Python Tutorial for Beginners series.

Python is the fastest path from 'I have never coded' to a working programmer in Pune's IT job market. Archer Infotech's Core Python training in Pune teaches the language itself in depth: Python 3.13 syntax, variables, control flow, functions, modules, packages, virtual environments, lists, tuples, dictionaries, sets, comprehensions, file handling, exceptions, OOP, iterators, generators, decorators, regular expressions, database connectivity basics, testing and interview-ready problem solving. Django, FastAPI, Data Science and AI/LLM integration are separate follow-on tracks; this page is the Core Python foundation. Classroom in Kothrud, online live, and weekend batches available.

Why Learn Python in 2026

Python has the lowest learning curve of any production language and one of the widest use cases in India: scripting, automation, testing, backend development, data work and AI. But every one of those paths begins with Core Python. Pune employers still screen beginners on syntax, functions, data structures, file handling, OOP, exceptions, debugging and the ability to explain small programs clearly.

What changed in 2026: Python 3.13 is the modern baseline, virtual-environment tooling is cleaner, type hints are normal in professional code, and AI-assisted development has become part of the learning workflow. A Core Python course should therefore teach the language deeply enough that learners can later move into Django, FastAPI, data analytics, machine learning or AI without relearning fundamentals.

What this means for hiring in Pune: the strongest beginner profile is not a long list of frameworks. It is a clean GitHub portfolio showing Core Python programs, file/CSV/JSON automation, OOP design, database connectivity basics, tested code, and problem-solving practice. Archer Infotech's curriculum is built around that foundation first.

  • Python 3.13 with free-threaded mode and JIT improvements
  • Core Python depth — functions, modules, OOP, exceptions, files, regex, iterators, decorators
  • Database and API basics without turning the course into a framework track
  • Foundation for Django, FastAPI, Data Science, Machine Learning and GenAI follow-on courses
  • Pune market reality — 1,000+ active Indeed Python listings, growing year-on-year

Who should take this Core Python Programming course?

For You If
  • Engineering, BCS, MCA, or BSc-CS student looking for your first IT or data role in Pune
  • Working professional in a non-Python stack wanting a clean Python foundation before automation, data or AI
  • BSc graduate or 12th-passout looking for the lowest-friction entry into a programming career
  • Career restarter (took a break, raising a family, switching from non-tech) re-entering software
  • Domain expert who wants Python for scripts, reports, automation and later data work
Not For You If
  • If you are targeting core-banking or large-team Cognizant-style enterprise Java work — pick Java Full Stack instead, both have ample Pune jobs
  • If your goal is Android / iOS native development — Python is not your path
  • If you expect a guaranteed ₹10L+ fresher offer — Pune junior Python ranges ₹2L–₹4L; the ₹10L+ roles need 3+ years or specialisation
  • If you will not put in 8–10 hours of practice per week outside class — Python is forgiving but not magical
  • If you want certificate-only learning with no projects — Pune hiring managers screen on portfolio, not certificates

What does the Python syllabus cover?

Eight-stage Core Python learning sequence at Archer Infotech Pune, covering Python foundations, functions, data structures, object-oriented programming, exceptions, file handling, modules, packages, virtual environments, iterators, generators, decorators, regex, database basics, API consumption, testing, debugging, DSA, capstone projects and interview preparation.
The Python course stays focused on Core Python: syntax, functions, OOP, files, modules, automation, testing, DSA and a reviewed capstone.
1

Python Fundamentals

Weeks 1–2

Set up Python 3.13 with virtual environments and pip, write your first script, then move into the language properly — variables, primitive types, control flow, functions, and the rich literal syntax (f-strings, list comprehensions). By the end of this module you'll be comfortable reading any Python codebase and writing 100-line scripts without lookup. We use modern tooling — uv or poetry for environments, ruff for formatting, mypy for type hints — so you absorb professional habits from day one.

2

Strings, Regular Expressions & Text Processing

Week 3

Python's string handling in depth, because a very large share of real Python work is reading text, reshaping it and writing it back out. Slicing, the method set, f-strings and the format mini-language, and encoding — which is where beginners meet their first genuinely confusing production bug, usually involving a UTF-8 file opened as ASCII.

Regular expressions follow: pattern syntax, groups, greedy against lazy matching, and the `re` module's compile, search, findall and sub. The module closes on the discipline of knowing when a regex is the wrong tool, and you build a log-parsing utility that extracts structured records from unstructured text.

3

Data Structures & Comprehensions

Weeks 3–4

Lists, tuples, sets, dictionaries — when each is the right choice and how each is implemented (CPython internals at a useful level). Comprehensions for declarative data transformation, generator expressions for lazy evaluation, and the collections module for specialised structures (defaultdict, Counter, deque). We finish with a small project that uses all four core structures in their idiomatic forms.

Lists, tuples, sets, dictionaries — costs and trade-offsList, set, dict comprehensionsGenerators and lazy evaluationcollections module — Counter, defaultdict, dequeitertools and functools essentialsMutability and shared-reference pitfalls
4

Object-Oriented Python

Week 5

Classes, instances, inheritance, polymorphism, and Python's distinctive features — properties, dunder methods, dataclasses (the modern way to write 80% of classes), and Protocol typing. Includes the discipline that hiring panels test for — when to use a class vs a function, when to use composition over inheritance, and how to design for testability.

Classes, __init__, instance vs class attributesInheritance and method resolution order (MRO)Properties and descriptorsDunder / magic methodsDataclasses and attrsProtocol typing (PEP 544)Composition over inheritance
5

File I/O, JSON, CSV and Working with the Filesystem

Week 6

Read and write text and binary files using context managers, parse and emit JSON, handle CSV data with the standard library, walk directory trees with pathlib, and build small scripts that rename files, validate folders, clean text and generate reports. This is Core Python as it appears in everyday work: automation, data handling, logs, configuration files and repeatable utilities, without jumping into pandas or web frameworks too early.

Standard Library Essentials — collections, itertools, functools

Week 6

The modules that separate Python that reads like Python from Python that reads like translated Java. `collections` gives you `defaultdict`, `Counter`, `deque`, `namedtuple` and `OrderedDict` — each of which replaces a five-line pattern beginners write by hand every time.

`itertools` covers lazy iteration, chaining, grouping, combinations and infinite sequences; `functools` covers `lru_cache`, `partial`, `reduce` and `wraps`. The framing throughout is the same: before writing a loop, check whether the standard library already did it — faster, tested, and in one line that a reviewer will recognise immediately.

7

Date, Time & Working with Real-World Data

Week 6

Dates are where correct-looking programs quietly produce wrong answers, so they get their own treatment. `datetime`, `date`, `time` and `timedelta`; naive against aware datetimes and why mixing them raises; time zones with `zoneinfo`; parsing and formatting with `strptime` and `strftime`; and ISO 8601 as the format to use whenever you control the choice.

The module then covers the practical data work that surrounds dates in real scripts — validating input, handling missing and malformed values, normalising inconsistent formats, and the defensive habits that stop one bad row from ending a batch job halfway through.

8

Modules, Packages, Virtual Environments & Tooling

Week 7

Learn how Python projects are organised once they grow past a single file. Cover modules, packages, imports, __name__ == '__main__', virtual environments, dependency installation, requirements files, pyproject.toml awareness, command-line arguments and clean folder layout. We also introduce GitHub workflow, README writing and code-review habits so your Core Python projects look professional rather than like classroom fragments.

9

Type Hints, Dataclasses & Modern Python

Week 7

What professional Python looks like in 2026. Type hints are not enforced at runtime and are still expected in any serious codebase: annotating functions, variables and collections, `Optional` and unions, generics, and running `mypy` so the hints actually catch something rather than decorating the file.

Dataclasses remove the boilerplate of `__init__`, `__repr__` and `__eq__`, and `frozen=True` gives immutability for free. Enums, `pathlib` instead of string paths, and the walrus operator and structural pattern matching close the module — the features that make current Python read very differently from Python written five years ago.

Advanced Core Python Patterns

Week 8

Strengthen the Python features that separate copy-paste beginners from confident programmers: iterators, generators, decorators, context managers, regular expressions, logging, configuration, datetime handling and type hints. These topics appear constantly in automation scripts, backend code, testing tools and data pipelines. Each concept is tied to a practical mini-task so it becomes usable rather than theoretical.

11

Database, API Consumption & Automation Basics

Week 9

Use Core Python to connect with the outside world. Learn SQLite and basic relational-database access, parameterised queries, simple CRUD operations, HTTP requests to public APIs, response parsing, retry awareness and automation scripts that move data between files, APIs and databases. This module gives the practical bridge into backend, data and automation tracks while staying within Core Python.

12

Logging, Command-Line Interfaces & Configuration

Week 9

The difference between a script and a tool someone else can run. Logging replaces `print` — levels, handlers, formatters, writing to file and console, and structured logging that can actually be searched. The rule taught is simple and rarely followed: `print` is for a human watching now, logging is for a human investigating later.

Command-line interfaces with `argparse` cover arguments, options, defaults, subcommands and help text. Configuration covers environment variables, `.env` files, config precedence, and keeping secrets out of source control — the mistake that ends up in a public repository often enough to be worth a section of its own.

13

Concurrency & Asynchronous Python

Week 9

Doing several things at once in a language with a Global Interpreter Lock, which is the subject most Python developers are vaguest about and interviewers most enjoy probing. The GIL is explained plainly, along with its actual consequence: threads help with I/O-bound work and do not help with CPU-bound work.

From there: `threading` and its locks, `multiprocessing` for true parallelism, `concurrent.futures` as the interface worth reaching for first, and `asyncio` — the event loop, coroutines, `async`/`await` and `gather`. The judgement being taught is which to choose, and the honest answer that for most scripts the correct choice is none of them.

14

Git, GitHub & Clean Python Practices

Week 10

The habits that make your work reviewable and your portfolio credible. Git as collaboration rather than three memorised commands: branching, merging, resolving conflicts, pull requests, review etiquette, and a commit history a stranger can follow.

Clean Python covers PEP 8 and what it is actually for, project layout, docstrings worth writing, `ruff` and `black` so formatting stops being a discussion, and the readability habits that get code approved rather than returned. You finish with a public repository — README, requirements, a working entry point — because that repository is what a Pune hiring panel opens before your CV.

15

Testing, Debugging, DSA & Capstone Preparation

Weeks 10–11

Turn Core Python knowledge into reliable code. Learn debugging in VS Code or PyCharm, pytest basics, fixtures, assertions, mocking awareness, coverage, and code-review habits. Then practise DSA patterns in Python: arrays/lists, strings, dictionaries, sets, stacks, queues, recursion, sorting and searching. This module prepares students for both the capstone and entry-level technical interviews.

Core Python Capstone & Interview Preparation

Week 12 + placement prep

Build a reviewed Core Python project that combines files, OOP, collections, exceptions, database/API basics, tests and documentation. Choose a file organiser, expense tracker, student records system, API data collector, log analyser or automation toolkit. Final review covers code structure, README quality, GitHub presentation, viva-style explanation, resume points, mock technical questions and next-path counselling for Django, FastAPI, Data Science, Machine Learning or GenAI.

AI-Assisted Development Workflow

Final Week

The skill every 2026 hiring panel now probes for — building real work with AI in the loop, responsibly. Learn to drive AI assistants (GitHub Copilot, Claude, Cursor, and IDE-native AI) to scaffold and accelerate the tools and stack this course covers, generate tests, explain and refactor unfamiliar code, and cut the boilerplate — while keeping you firmly in control of every decision. Heavy focus on guardrails: reviewing each AI suggestion, spotting hallucinated APIs or wrong answers, and handling licensing and data-privacy concerns. Close with a mini-project that takes a deliverable end-to-end using an AI-assisted workflow, then fold the same tooling into version control and everyday team practice.

What jobs and salaries follow this course in Pune?

Core Python is the entry foundation for automation, testing, backend, data and AI paths in Pune. Salary depends heavily on specialisation later, but beginners are first evaluated on Python syntax, functions, OOP, file handling, data structures, debugging, testing and project explanation.

What pulls a Core Python learner above the average fresher band: a public GitHub portfolio with useful scripts, file/CSV/JSON automation, OOP projects, database/API basics, pytest coverage and clean README files. Django, FastAPI, data science and AI can raise the ceiling later, but this course builds the base.

What placement support do you get?

Placement support starts from week 8 of the course, not at the end. By the time you finish the curriculum, your resume is ready, your GitHub is presentable, and you have completed at least three mock technical interviews against question banks from Pune product, services, and analytics companies.

We say placement support, not placement guarantee — for two honest reasons. First, no institute can guarantee a hire when the final decision is the company's. Second, the institutes that do guarantee tend to bury the conditions in fine print. Our support is unconditional, time-bound (six months after course completion), and includes free re-entry to a future batch's interview-prep sessions if your first round of interviews does not land.

Placement process — week by week
  1. Week 8 — resume and LinkedIn rewrite, with feedback from a trainer who has hired
  2. Week 9 — GitHub portfolio cleanup, public READMEs, deployment links

Python vs Java — Which to Learn First in 2026

If your goal is scripting, automation, testing support, data preparation or a gentle first programming language, Core Python is usually the easier start. You write useful programs quickly and the syntax does not fight beginners.

If your goal is enterprise backend engineering, large services-company Java teams or Android-adjacent work, Core Java may be the stronger first language. Java has a wider enterprise footprint in Pune, while Python gives faster early productivity.

Honest answer for most Pune freshers: choose Python if you want the lowest-friction entry into programming and later data/AI options. Choose Java if you are targeting enterprise backend from day one. Many students eventually learn both.

What are the prerequisites, and how do you start?

Prerequisites are minimal — basic computer use, logical thinking, and willingness to commit 8–10 hours per week of practice outside class. No prior programming experience required; we start from `print('Hello, world!')` on day one. If you have done a 12th-standard computer-science course, you will move slightly faster but won't be ahead of where the course expects.

  1. Decide your mode — classroom in Kothrud, online live, or weekend
  2. Check the upcoming batch dates on our batch schedule page
  3. Book a free 30-minute counselling call — we will honestly tell you whether the course fits your goal
  4. Confirm enrolment and complete pre-course orientation

    No — we start from absolute basics. The course is designed for first-time programmers.

    Read more

    What you do need is 8–10 hours per week of practice outside class. Coding is learned by writing code; passive watching does not transfer.

  • Is Python certification worth it for jobs in Pune?

    Pune hiring managers screen on portfolio over certificates. For a Core Python learner, a clean public GitHub with automation scripts, OOP projects, SQLite-backed utilities, tested functions and readable README files is stronger than a certificate alone.

    Read more

    We help you build that portfolio during the course.

  • Can I learn Python and switch to data science / AI later?

    Yes. This Core Python course gives the programming base required for Data Science, Machine Learning and Generative AI tracks.

    Read more

    It does not teach pandas, NumPy, scikit-learn, RAG or LLM app development in depth; those are separate follow-on courses once your Core Python is strong.

  • Will I work on real projects?

    Yes — Core Python projects such as a file automation toolkit, student records or expense tracker with SQLite, and a Python DSA/problem-solving repository.

    Read more
