# Cisco DevNet Associate Data Encoding Formats Hands-On Lab Guide

## Overview

What's the big fuss over IT automation? Well, more than anything, the excitement is about the sorts of things that you _don't_ have to do when automation is on your side. Things like _not_ having to either copy and paste configuration changes to dozens (maybe hundreds) of different systems or repeat the same click, click, click, click, click-through-the-UI marathon over, and over, and over..._every single time_ there's a need to make a bulk change :rage:. To automate these sorts of workflows, we need to learn to write some form of automation-specific code. To make that possible, we must first learn to read and write the **data structures** that our code sends to and receives from the systems we automate.

This guide will walk you through some hands-on exercises that help teach and also give you a place to practice using various **data encoding formats** with Python. You'll get the most from these exercises if you have at least a little bit of exposure to Python fundamentals, although we put the step-by-step directions together in a way that welcomes all experience levels.
