What are the benefits of figuring out the kind of an object by the way it behaves? What coding circumstances are usually not a great match for duck typing? Christopher Trudeau is again on the present this week, bringing one other batch of PyCoder’s Weekly articles and tasks.
Episode Sponsor:
Christopher covers a current Actual Python tutorial by Leodanis Pozo Ramos titled Duck Typing in Python: Writing Versatile and Decoupled Code. The tutorial explains the ideas of duck typing inside object-oriented programming and its use inside Python’s built-in instruments.
We focus on a current article on monkey patching in Python. This follow of dynamically modifying a category or module’s habits at runtime permits for testing, debugging, and experimentation.
We additionally share a number of different articles and tasks from the Python neighborhood, together with a information roundup, why names are usually not the identical as objects in Python, utilizing IPython Jupyter magic instructions, a dialogue about turning into a senior developer, an information exploration problem, a Python analysis sport, and a terminal UI for regex testing.
This week’s episode is delivered to you by Sentry.
Course Highlight: Pointers and Objects in Python
On this video course, you’ll find out about Python’s object mannequin and see why pointers don’t actually exist in Python. You’ll additionally cowl methods to simulate pointers in Python with out managing reminiscence.

- What’s in a Title? – An article about names in Python, and why they’re not the identical as objects. The article discusses reference counts and namespaces.
- Duck Typing in Python: Writing Versatile and Decoupled Code – On this tutorial, you’ll find out about duck typing in Python. It’s a typing system primarily based on objects’ behaviors quite than on inheritance. By making the most of duck typing, you possibly can create versatile and decoupled units of Python courses that you should utilize collectively or individually.
- Utilizing IPython Jupyter Magic Instructions – “IPython Jupyter Magic instructions (e.g. traces in pocket book cells beginning with % or %%) can beautify a pocket book cell, or line, to switch its habits.” This text exhibits you methods to outline them and the place they are often helpful.
- Monkeying Round With Python: A Information to Monkey Patching – Monkey patching is the follow of modifying stay code. This text exhibits you the way it’s executed and why and when to make use of the follow.
