15 Python Tips : How to Write Code Effectively

Image
 Here are some Python tips to keep in mind that will help you write clean, efficient, and bug-free code.     Python Tips for Effective Coding 1. Code Readability and PEP 8  Always aim for clean and readable code by following PEP 8 guidelines.  Use meaningful variable names, avoid excessively long lines (stick to 79 characters), and organize imports properly. 2. Use List Comprehensions List comprehensions are concise and often faster than regular for-loops. Example: squares = [x**2 for x in range(10)] instead of creating an empty list and appending each square value. 3. Take Advantage of Python’s Built-in Libraries  Libraries like itertools, collections, math, and datetime provide powerful functions and data structures that can simplify your code.   For example, collections.Counter can quickly count elements in a list, and itertools.chain can flatten nested lists. 4. Use enumerate Instead of Range     When you need both the index and the value in a loop, enumerate is a more Pyth

Relative Vs. Absolute Path in Linux: Top Differences

 Here's the difference between the relative and absolute paths in Linux. Many a time, the programmer needs to trade in these paths. Here're simple ideas on how you can differentiate. Absolute Vs. Relative path These are the differences between Absolute and Relative path in Linux. Absolute Path $ cd /usr/lib $ cd /usr/lib pwd See this path (linux#1/usr/lib), when you give PWD, it gives a full path from the root level. This is called absolute or full path. Think of the absolute pathname as being the complete mailing address for a package that the postal service will deliver to your next-door neighbor. Relative Path $ cd usr $ /user cd lib $ /usr/lib pwd $ linux#1/usr/lib ==> Going step by step and achieving. $ linux#1/usr/lib cd ../../ ==> This is the method of going back step by step. $ linux#1 ==> This is root level directory You are currently in the lib directory. So relative path nothing but complete information of all the mother directories. Here, for lib, th
