It's import to realise that you don't just use f-strings for printing, sometimes they are great for converting data from one format to another. If you use the bin() function to convert a number (n) into a binary string, it adds a '0b' prefix, which you may then need to remove using slicing. You could just use f'n:b' to do the same thing, or for example, if you use f'n:032b' you get a 32-bit binary string with all the leading zeroes included! Much simpler than writing some code to do the same thing.
Great! Are you planning to make a second edition of the Python Bible book? It's been 2 years since the first edition published, can't wait for continuation!
Everytime I have a question about python I end up at your channel. Your videos are very informative and great to learn from! PS: How is the song called in your intro?
Hello there! In 11:10, I'd like to do something like this: day = 7 month = 6 year = 2023 MAX_DAYS = 31 MAX_MONTHS = 12 print(f"{day:len(MAX_DAYS)}.{month:len(MAX_MONTHS)}.{year}") Also, if we wanted to have the binary in 11:40 like 0100_1001 etc and not 100_1001 etc. Like add the last 0 when cutting it in bits of 4 or 8, how could we do that?
the first thing, you are good when explain python. And the second thing, i like, because you use pycharm and not VS Code, of microsoft. Never, i will use ide of microsoft in my linux

Another thing worth mentining is that you can define your own custom formatting rules for your classes by implementing the ___format___ method.
thats fkn sick i never knew that till now

Very useful. Those IC.enanle and disable were amazing for verbose functions and argparse. Tysm
Great tutorial as usual - very useful tips for formatting.
Nice! 2:16

when you did dollar values how did it know to separate after 3 digits? Is that default behavior?
use grouping=True on the locale. Currency(value, grouping=True)

thank you, py mentor.
Awesome!!! Very useful. Thanx a lot
what key stroke did he use at 10:13 to delete every in the format string?
great to know this stuff. thank you.
Hey, when will you talk about the real company Cannafarm Ltd that brings profit?
_amazing_
Very useful :-)
Why dont you use python 3.11?
Do Little work on intro❤❤❤
Not a function, not a class (same 'str'), just a dirty hacks that looks like 'salty syntax'. Maybe all show go write simple, readable code instead?

Hi,
Why this doesn't work?

When asking for help it's generally a good idea to include the error that you're getting.
Works fine for me
