AI Lesson & Submodule

Python typing and validation

Type hints, dataclasses, Pydantic basics, and function contracts.

Why This Matters

Dynamic Python code is prone to runtime type errors. Static typing and Pydantic schemas enforce database and API safety.

What You Will Learn

  • Writing type hints (List, Dict, Union, Optional)
  • Defining structured dataclasses
  • Creating Pydantic validation schemas
  • Enforcing strict function contracts
