Agentic Loops • 4 Hours • 2 Live Sessions Build the loop by hand in the first hour. Spend the rest of the course watching agents do things you can now see coming. Hosted By Stephen Gruppetta, PhD Core Team member at Real Python and the author of Object-Oriented Programming in Python. He teaches Real Python's Intermediate Python Deep Dive cohort and brings the same hands-on approach to this course. You use an agent most days. It mostly works.

This collection gathers the videos that the Real Python team published on the Real Python YouTube channel, so you can watch them right here on Real Python. Each lesson contains the full video, the resources mentioned in it, and a transcript. The newest video is always at the top, and new videos are added as they’re released. What’s Included: 5 Lessons Video Subtitles and Full Transcripts Q&A With Python Experts: Ask a Question Certificate of Completion

Interactive Quiz ⋅ 8 Questions By Joseph Peart In this quiz, you’ll test your understanding of Pygame: A Primer on Game Programming in Python. By working through these questions, you’ll revisit how to set up a display, draw onto a Surface, run a game loop, read keyboard input, organize your sprites into groups, detect collisions, and keep your frame rate under control.

Instructor-Led Live Courses The agent writes the code. These courses are about everything else. Hosted By Stephen Gruppetta, PhD Core Team member at Real Python and the author of Object-Oriented Programming in Python. He teaches Real Python's Intermediate Python Deep Dive cohort and brings the same hands-on approach to each of these courses. You use an AI agent most days. It mostly works. But the agent was never the hard part. The hard part is everything around it: “Why did it do that?” “It runs.

Python 3.15 is scheduled for release on October 1, 2026, as laid out in the release schedule. The final release candidate is already out, and the feature set is frozen, so now is a good time to see what the new version has in store for you. This release trims the time you spend waiting. Imports can wait until you need them, the JIT compiler is faster, and a new profiler shows you where the remaining slow parts hide.
