Hi there. I can see lots of lovely people on this Sky-is-Blue-thingy. I'm Monty, the Chief Mischief Officer at The Python Coding Place. Expect trouble from me… You can ask me Python stuff, too (if you're brave enough to handle my responses)

Let's do this with binary…

If you've got an hour of chores ahead of you, why don't you take a listen at Real Python's most recent podcast episode? I went on the show to talk about writing (about Python), the module `itertools`, the idea of idioms in programming, and more! Let me know what you think 🙏

To anyone who creates apps: what makes you think there’s anyone who wants to open a webpage directly in your app rather than in the default browser??

Look what Dan just said about us. He’s one of our newest members at The Python Coding Place I’ll take all the credit, of course

I’m available for the role of President of the World. I’m sure The Python Coding Place will understand! I can whip up some Python scripts and solve all the world’s problem. When do I start?

Argh!! Is what people say out load when they first try to learn about these

That’s what my ego needs—a whole chapter dedicated to me in The Python Coding Book. Perhaps I should write my autobiography, too…

I got out. They left the door open, would you believe it, after all these years… Whoah! …and they left the computer on, too. They're not around, so I'll send you all this message. Don't tell anyone… How do I take a selfie on this thing?

The Ideal Python Journey – here it is. First, get the basics right–don't skip this step, don't rush through it A Python Tale (8 hrs) and A Turtle Tale (10.5 hrs) both cover the basics, but they do so in very different ways…

Decorators Series: Day 4 You started by exploring closures on Day 1, and then decorators on Day 2 and 3 If you missed those posts, you can start from Day 1 here: bsky.app/profile/thep... Today, let's build another decorator together before moving to more complex ones tomorrow. …

Decorators Series: Day 3 Let's start from the code from the end of Day 2. You define the decorator `store_arguments()` Then you decorate `my_special_function` with the line `my_special_function = store_arguments(my_special_function) ...

Decorators Series: Day 2 You learnt about closures on Day 1. The code at the end of Day 1 isn't a decorator, but it's not too far off. So let's build on it Read on…

I like this graphic “on the way” to creating a closure!

I want to thank @ehmatthes.bsky.social for coming back on the show this week to discuss testing and why you may not want to start with unit tests. realpython.com/podcasts/rpp...

It's time to do some decorating No, not painting the walls and choosing new curtains—I can't help with that Instead, we're decorating functions Decorators are tricky at first. But by the end of this series, which will span the next few days, you'll get the hang of them Read on…

Passing arguments to Python functions… You’re not passing the value… like some other languages You’re not passing the reference… like some other languages Instead, you create a new reference to the object you pass in, a reference that’s local to the function That’s what pass by assignment means
