Hello, I've been programming in Python for a few years now. I have read most the typical learning resources, such as 'Dive Into Python', 'A Byte of Python', etc. In general I feel I have a good overview of the language. However, as I advanced toward trying to create more OO styled programs, I feel I am lacking some background on basic concepts.
I have read 'Coding' and 'Beautiful Code', and while these provide good information on how to style and think about code, they haven't help me design classes, think about where and when to use inheritance, decorators, etc. The point is, most examples stop at demonstrating a single class, or show a trivial decorator example. What I am after is something that will help me design a program from scratch. What are the key points to the classes? Is it okay to reference or pass classes to instantiate a class? When would I want to use a decorator? How to decide which should be a static method, and if I need them at all? I know a lot of this would come from experience of working in a team, but unfortunately, I'm mostly running solo. I am starting to look more and more at source code too, which I find helpful, but the styles of programming vary significantly. Perhaps someone could say which modules have nice 'exemplary' code worth learning from? So, if someone has a good book or online reference, please point me to it. Other ideas too are most certainly welcome!
