This unit teaches students how to extend, structure, and troubleshoot Python programs by using the standard library, third-party packages, modules, and web resources including JSON and simple web interactions. Students will also focus on writing idiomatic, well-structured code and on systematic debugging strategies, preparing them to build larger projects and to responsibly reuse external code.
Learning Objectives
- Apply Python standard library modules and third-party packages by importing and using them to perform tasks such as JSON serialization and basic web interactions.
- Demonstrate correct Python syntax, indentation, variable usage, list operations, control flow, and function definitions to produce readable and functioning code.
- Analyze runtime and syntax errors using debugging techniques, error messages, testing, and external resources (documentation, web searches, and AI tools) to identify and fix faults.
- Evaluate and integrate external modules and web-based solutions responsibly by assessing reliability, licensing, and basic security considerations before reuse.
