Put it simple decorator allow you to modify a given function's definition without touch its innermost (it's closure).Fri, 03 Apr 2026 03:00:00 GMThttps://stackoverflow.com/questions/26000198/what-does-colon-equal-in-python-meanIn Python this is simply =. To translate this pseudocode into Python you would need to know the data structures being referenced, and a bit more of the algorithm implementation. Some notes about psuedocode: := is the assignment operator or = in Python = is the equality operator or == in Python There are certain styles, and your mileage may vary:Thu, 02 Apr 2026 18:03:00 GMThttps://stackoverflow.com/questions/11060506/is-there-a-not-equal-operator-in-pythonThere's the != (not equal) operator that returns True when two values differ, though be careful with the types because "1" != 1. This will always return True and "1" == 1 will always return False, since the types differ. Python is dynamically, but strongly typed, and other statically typed languages would complain about comparing different types. There's also the else clause:Fri, 03 Apr 2026 07:03:00 GMThttps://stackoverflow.com/questions/2485466/what-is-pythons-equivalent-of-logical-and-in-an-if-statementThere is no bitwise negation in Python (just the bitwise inverse operator ~ - but that is not equivalent to not). See also 6.6. Unary arithmetic and bitwise/binary operations and 6.7. Binary arithmetic operations. The logical operators (like in many other languages) have the advantage that these are short-circuited. That means if the first operand already defines the result, then the second ...Thu, 02 Apr 2026 23:25:00 GMThttps://stackoverflow.com/questions/3453085/what-is-double-colon-in-python-when-subscripting-sequencesI know that I can use something like string[3:4] to get a substring in Python, but what does the 3 mean in somesequence[::3]?Wed, 01 Apr 2026 19:59:00 GMThttps://stackoverflow.com/questions/2209755/python-operation-vs-is-notIn a comment on this question, I saw a statement that recommended using result is not None vs result != None What is the difference? And why might one be recommended over the other?Thu, 02 Apr 2026 10:10:00 GMThttps://stackoverflow.com/questions/132988/is-there-a-difference-between-and-isSince is for comparing objects and since in Python 3+ every variable such as string interpret as an object, let's see what happened in above paragraphs. In python there is id function that shows a unique constant of an object during its lifetime. This id is using in back-end of Python interpreter to compare two objects using is keyword.Fri, 03 Apr 2026 03:50:00 GMThttps://stackoverflow.com/questions/8305199/the-tilde-operator-in-pythonIn Python, conceptually, numbers use an arbitrary number of bits. The implementation will allocate more space automatically, according to what is necessary to represent the number. (For example, if the value would "fit" in one machine word, then only one is used; the data type abstracts the process of sign-extending the number out to infinity.)Tue, 31 Mar 2026 01:37:00 GMThttps://stackoverflow.com/questions/2451386/what-does-the-caret-operator-doSide note, seeing as Python defines this as an xor operation and the method name has "xor" in it, I would consider it a poor design choice to make that method do something not related to xor like exponentiation. I think it's a good illustrative example of how it simply calls the __xor__ method, but to do that for real would be bad practice.Fri, 03 Apr 2026 23:10:00 GMThttps://stackoverflow.com/questions/5893163/what-is-the-purpose-of-the-single-underscore-variable-in-pythonAs far as the Python languages is concerned, _ generally has no special meaning. It is a valid identifier just like _foo, foo_ or _f_o_o_. The only exception are match statements since Python 3.10: In a case pattern within a match statement, _ is a soft keyword that denotes a wildcard. source Otherwise, any special meaning of _ is purely by ...Tue, 31 Mar 2026 15:13:00 GMT
