Is there a chance that in the future I'll need to add even more complexity? If so, I'll try to redesign the code so that I don't need that chain of if-elif statements. In this week’s video, I cover a design pattern that helped me eliminate many of those chains from a project + at the same time made the code easier to...
Hi there, I just published a new video about Python 3.14, and no, it’s not just about the version number lining up with π (though that does make me feel more complete). The new release brings a bunch of improvements, but I decided to focus on the features I personally love and that I actually use in my day-to-day work.
