- What does colon equal (:=) in Python mean? - Stack Overflow
In 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:
- python - What does the caret (^) operator do? - Stack Overflow
Side 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
- What is Pythons equivalent of (logical-and) in an if-statement?
There 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
- python - Is there a difference between == and is? - Stack Overflow
According to the previous answers: It seems python performs caching on small integer and strings which means that it utilizes the same object reference for 'hello' string occurrences in this code snapshot, while it did not preform caching for 'hello sam' as it is relatively larger than 'hello' (i e it manages different references of 'hello sam
- python - What is the purpose of the -m switch? - Stack Overflow
Python 2 4 adds the command line switch -m to allow modules to be located using the Python module namespace for execution as scripts The motivating examples were standard library modules such as pdb and profile, and the Python 2 4 implementation is fine for this limited purpose
- What is :: (double colon) in Python when subscripting sequences?
I 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]?
- slice - How slicing in Python works - Stack Overflow
Python slicing is a computationally fast way to methodically access parts of your data In my opinion, to be even an intermediate Python programmer, it's one aspect of the language that it is necessary to be familiar with
- python - Iterating over dictionaries using for loops - Stack Overflow
Why is it 'better' to use my_dict keys() over iterating directly over the dictionary? Iteration over a dictionary is clearly documented as yielding keys It appears you had Python 2 in mind when you answered this, because in Python 3 for key in my_dict keys() will still have the same problem with changing the dictionary size during iteration
