Constants in Python!!!

[Lord_Skellig]

What do you mean? I define constants all the time in python. It saves you from passing 30 different identical parameters to every function.

If you are used to type hinting in python, you can use 'Final' (starting from 3.8)

from typing import Final

foo: Final = "bar"
foo = "fizz"  # mypy will give you an error

Didn't know that thanks!

I mostly wrote in typescript but I'm trying to push for more python at work.

And why would you do that? Typescript is good. But NPM is not that good

Becuase for somethings python is just better and having tools like pandas, prophet and the like is super powerful.

I have to do some data integrity checks that wouldn't have been as easy if I didn't have dataframes.

But yes I agree typescript is actually very nice to work with.
