When it comes to coding in Python, one of the most frustrating things to deal with is syntax errors. These occur when the code you’ve written doesn’t conform to the proper syntax rules of the language, and can be difficult to diagnose and fix. One common situation in which you may encounter a syntax error […]
A binary search is an algorithm that is used to search for an element in a sorted list. It works by comparing the element to be searched with the middle element of the list. If the element to be searched is smaller than the middle element, then the algorithm searches the left half of the […]

DRY, or “Don’t Repeat Yourself,” is a principle that is commonly used in software development. It’s a simple idea: avoid repeating yourself by abstracting out common patterns and concepts into their own modular pieces of code. When writing code in Python, it’s important to follow the DRY principle for a number of reasons. First, using […]
Pythonic code is code that uses the conventions and idioms of the Python programming language, rather than writing code that is specific to a particular implementation of a programming language. This type of code is often considered more readable and maintainable than non-Pythonic code. One of the reasons that Pythonic code is important is because […]
Python generators are a convenient way to create iterators. Unlike regular functions, generators are functions that return an object on which you can call next, and the generator function will resume where it left off. This allows you to create lazy iterators, which only generate the values you need, when you need them. As an […]
Writing clean and well-structured Python classes is an important aspect of software development. Classes are a way to organize and structure your code, making it easier to understand, maintain, and reuse. In this blog post, we’ll take a look at how to write clean Python classes using the examples of Super Mario and Sonic the […]
First, let’s define what a dictionary is. In simple terms, a dictionary is a collection of key-value pairs, where each key is unique and is associated with a specific value. Dictionaries are denoted using curly braces ({}) and the key-value pairs are separated by commas. Here’s an example of a simple Python dictionary: Now that […]
