Core Python Skills

• A strong grasp of fundamental and advanced Python concepts is the foundation: 
• Core Concepts: Proficiency in Python's syntax, data types (lists, dictionaries, tuples, sets), control structures, and functions.
• Object-Oriented Programming (OOP): Understanding classes, objects, inheritance, and encapsulation to build modular and scalable applications is crucial, as the platform is object-oriented.
• Exception Handling: The ability to manage errors gracefully using try and except blocks to ensure application stability.
• Testing and Debugging: Expertise in unit testing using tools like PyTest or Unittest, and effective debugging to identify and fix issues in the code.
• Modular Programming: Structuring code into smaller, reusable functions or classes for maintainability and collaboration.
• Code Quality & Version Control: Adhering to best practices like PEP 8 style guidelines and using version control systems (Git, GitHub, GitLab) for collaborative development and change tracking. 

Thought Machine Platform Specific Skills
