How to get IDE1:51
How to use IDE2:06
Install the Python interpreter and PyCharm IDE, create a new project, run a hello script, and begin preparing a verification environment for RTL verification.
Understanding Print P16:05
Understanding Print P24:30
Code0:06
Logging P16:18
Import and use Python's logging library, explore levels: debug, info, warning, error, and critical, and learn how setLevel filters console output.
Code0:09
Logging P25:56
Logging P33:10
Log data to a file for large report sets by creating a file handle, using logging.Formatter, and attaching a file handler to the logger to store logs in data.txt.

Variables P13:27
Explore Python's dynamic typing, where variables infer integer, float, and complex types from values, without explicit declarations. Use type() to verify types for RTL verification.
Variables P23:49
Variables P33:28
Practice Python fundamentals by declaring integer, float, and complex variables, printing values, and using strings to debug an RTL verification environment with generator, driver, monitor, and interface.

Lists P15:10
Discover how to store a collection of data in Python using lists, tuples, sets, and dictionaries. Practice indexing, order, duplicates, and common methods like print and len in verification environments.
Lists P24:16
Discover how to update lists with append and insert in Python, where append adds at the end like a FIFO, and insert places at a specific index with length shifting.
Lists P31:33
Code0:13
Lists P45:14
Lists P51:19
Code0:06
Lists P64:11
Lists Used cases2:24
Tuple P13:32
Tuple P21:04
Tuple P33:31
Extend python tuples with concat to add elements. Repeat values with the asterisk; deleting a single item isn't allowed, delete the tuple with del, and use len to get length.
Tuple P44:11
Tuple P52:07
Code0:16
Tuple Used Cases2:03
Dictionary P14:07
Dictionary P21:41
Dictionary P33:42
Learn to access and remove dictionary items with get, pop, and popitem (which returns the last item), copy dictionaries, and compare del and clear methods.

Function without arguments6:06
Code
Function with arguments8:06
Learn how to define functions with required and default arguments, accept strings and numbers, print combined messages, and handle multiple arguments and type concatenation in Python.
Code0:08
Funcation with arbitary arguments p13:56
Funcation with arbitary arguments p23:00
Funcation with arbitary arguments p31:50
Code0:07
Function with arbitary Keyword arguments6:25
Code0:10
Power of function P13:32
Explore the power of functions in Python for building a test bench and rtl verification, including how to define functions, pass arguments, print outputs, and nest function calls.
Power of function P22:54
Learn how a Python function can return another function and how decorators enhance functionality without changing the original function, enabling advanced behavior through function references.
Decorators5:08
learn how to build and apply a decorator that wraps functions, prints start and end messages, and applies stimuli, logging, and failure reporting in cocotb.
