Chapter-Wise Breakdown and Highlights:


Chapter 1: Advanced Data Structures in Python
This chapter explores the internals and advanced usage of Python’s built-in data structures. It emphasizes the real-world importance of collections, such as deque, Counter, OrderedDict, and introduces heapq for priority-based operations.
Key topics:

• List slicing, memory optimization
• Set operations and hashing
• Dictionary nesting and lookups
• Use of collections module

Chapter 2: Iterators and Generators
Iterators and generators are the backbone of Pythonic iteration and memory-efficient programming. This chapter demystifies how they work and how developers can create custom ones.
Key topics:

• Lazy evaluation and infinite data streams
• Custom iterator classes with __iter__ and __next__
• Use of yield and generator expressions

Chapter 3: Decorators and Closures
Functional programming is a key strength of Python. This chapter introduces decorators and closures — tools that allow modification of behavior, enhance modularity, and implement advanced design patterns.
Key topics:

• @staticmethod and @classmethod explained as decorators
• Logging, access control using decorators
• Nested functions and closures
• Parameterized decorators
