Python tutorials & labs.

The most practical Python path for VLSI — built entirely around real RTL/DV workflows, not generic Python content. From why Python became the automation backbone of modern verification teams through fundamentals, control flow, functions, and data structures taught on test names and simulation metadata, then file handling, pathlib project structures, regular expressions for UVM/timing/synthesis/coverage reports, CSV/JSON/YAML config processing, argparse CLI tools, subprocess EDA-tool automation, simulation and regression automation, log parsing, coverage analysis, report generation, RTL generation helpers, verification productivity tools, Python+Tcl+Bash flow integration, defensive debugging, five industry case studies (regression manager, coverage analyzer, UVM log parser, STA report parser, simulation dashboard), tiered interview mastery, review checklists, and the misconceptions that hold engineers back.
