We All Love Python
Python is one of the programming languages I use the most. I started using it mostly for CTFs (for the fantastic pwntools framework) and ended up using it whenever possible.

Not all of us want to do management or sales. Many talented and skilled people only want to do what they love most: It can be cloud administration, design, coding, or whatever.

Type hinting is an optional feature in Python that allows you to hint the type of the object(s) you’re using. As Python became the language of choice for many fields (e.g., scientific, data science, and data engineering), the need to improve the code quality and the coding workflow is becoming essential.
Challenges
As for all dynamic languages, there are few challenges to write robust and high-quality code. To cite the main ones:
- As there are no indications on Types of the objects that are passed around, programs usually end up with runtime issues. …
Everyone around me continuously criticized Facebook et al. for ruining our family dinners, work meetings, and even weekend parties. Today, we praise them as the saviors of humanity in this pandemic age.
