In Python programming, the “assert” statement stands as a flag for code correctness, a vigilant guardian against errors that may lurk within your scripts.”assert” is a Python keyword that evaluates a specified condition, ensuring that it holds true as your program runs. When the condition i...
By the end of this article, you’ll understand the unique features that keep PyCharm ahead in the game, learn about its applications in web development, data science, and Python scripting, and peek into its competitors like Eclipse + PyDev and Jupyter Notebook. What Is PyCharm? PyCharm i...
In this tutorial, you'll explore Python's __pycache__ folder. You'll learn about when and why the interpreter creates these folders, and you'll customize their default behavior. Finally, you'll take a look under the hood of the cached .pyc files.
Here's a fun project attempting to explain what exactly is happening under the hood for some counter-intuitive snippets and lesser-known features in Python.While some of the examples you see below may not be WTFs in the truest sense, but they'll reveal some of the interesting parts of ...
Can I paste text into a document in a different language? Yes, you can. The paste function doesn't care about the language of the text. However, if the document's language settings are different from the language of the pasted text, your word processor might flag the pasted text as havi...

@betatim - it is my understanding from what you said, without technically understanding it, that you think it would make sense to have the -f flag for docker images, is this correct? We have been doing what I think is the equivalent of -f in repo2docker for a few weeks(?) now and...
A notable limitation of the Python 3.5 implementation is that it was not possible to use await and yield in the same function body. In Python 3.6 this restriction has been lifted, making it possible to define asynchronous generators: async def ticker(delay, to): """Yield numbers from 0 to...
Why reprex? Getting unstuck is hard. Your first step here is usually to create a reprex, or reproducible example. The goal of a reprex is to package your code, and information about your problem so that others can run it…
Feature flags enable you to safely roll out pre-release code in a CI/CD pipeline that is hidden from users. When you are ready to release the changes, you can update the feature flag without deploying new code. After the launch is complete, the flag can still function as a block switch...
