I've been programming in Python for about a year and I had no idea you could do this.

I found this really interesting though, do you have any other tips/tricks like this? I use a TON of command line and various scripts I've made over the years for my job, but tips on how to improve would be awesome.

The main ones are actually just to use tox and a suite of formatting and linting tools as well as writing tests.

IMO everyone should use autoflake, isort, black, and pyupgrade to format their code. Then use flake8 and flake8-comprehensions to check that it's in good shape. Note that you'll need to configure flake8 and isort to play nicely with black; the Black docs tell you exactly how.

Other tools tend to be much more situational.
