The python3 engineer certification exam is an exam conducted by the Python Engineer Development Promotion Association. As for my information, I usually develop in java, and I have almost no experience in developing in other languages. This time, I took this exam to acquire the basic knowledge of python3.

The questions will be given in the following ratios, with the contents of the main teaching material O'Reilly Japan "Python Tutorial 3rd Edition" as the scope of questions. You will also be asked from general knowledge.
Although there is a description, the tutorial can also be viewed for free on the WEB. https://docs.python.org/ja/3/tutorial/
The questions to be asked are as follows.
| Chapter | Number of questions | Question rate |
|---|---|---|
| Chapter 1 | Let's have an appetite | 1 |
| Chapter 2 | How to use the Python interpreter | 1 |
| Chapter 3 | Easy introduction | 6 |
| Chapter 4 | Control structure tool | 9 |
| Chapter 5 | data structure | 7 |
| Chapter 6 | module | 2 |
| Chapter 7 | Input / output | 1 |
| Chapter 8 | Errors and exceptions | 4 |
| Chapter 9 | class | 2 |
| Chapter 10 | Visiting the standard library | 4 |
| Chapter 11 | Visiting the standard library ─ Part II | 1 |
| Chapter 12 | Virtual environment and packages | 1 |
| Chapter 13 | What's next? | 0 |
| Chapter 14 | Input line editing and history replacement in an interactive environment | 1 |
| total | 40 | 100.0% |
Looking at this, it seems that it is okay if you study about 3 to 10 chapters. From Chapter 9 onwards, there are many things that are troublesome to remember instead of the number of questions, so the cost performance is bad.
I will scan through the tutorial. (At first, there is no problem just grasping the contents somehow)
You can take the mock exam from the URL below, so all you have to do is solve it. https://exam.diveintocode.jp/exam
As a procedure,
① Solve the mock exam ↓ ② Go to the relevant part of the tutorial and check the question you made a mistake in the mock exam.
Just repeat ① and ② and solve until you get a passing score.
In the actual exam, questions like the mock exam were given, so I think that there is no problem if you are doing the mock exam.
I took the exam this time, but if I had practical experience in multiple languages, I didn't have much trouble. I bet on studying for a few weeks. To be honest, it is delicate whether or not it can be used in the future, but it may be an opportunity to acquire basic knowledge.
