Course
Getting to Know Duck Typing in PythonLearn about duck typing in Python---a type system based on an object's behavior rather than inheritance. By taking advantage of duck typing, you can create flexible and decoupled sets of Python classes that work together or independently.
#11
Course
Python Type CheckingIn this course, you'll look at Python type checking. Traditionally, types have been handled by the Python interpreter in a flexible but implicit way. Recent versions of Python allow you to specify explicit type hints that can be used by different tools to help you develop your code more efficiently.
#12
Course
Using Type Hints for Multiple Return Types in PythonLearn how to define multiple return types using type hints in Python. This course covers working with single or multiple pieces of data, defining type aliases, and performing type checking using a third-party static type checker tool.
