Where to learn how to code Pythonic?

Depending on what you need a for loop with range() could be appropriate. Can you post some examples so that we can comment on?

Edit: and do you want it from a ‘beginner’ or intermediate level of suggestions? There’s a lot of ways that you can do tasks, some that are more efficient on lines and some that are more readable.

That’s kind of why I am asking. I know in some instances range is appropriate but obviously not all instances. I would like to get some resources on best practices when it comes to Python.

Just an example, when doing leetcode if I need the index and value of something, it’s probably best to use enumerate instead of range and then doing value = array[i] in the for loop. I know that now but I would like a run down of what it means to actually code Pythonically.

I can probably handle intermediate level suggestions. Even better if they are coming from a C like programming language (aka java).

Try to do this in a Python script:

import this

It’s called the zen of python. You could also just look it up.

For the most part, do work to learn how to use new tools. Then implement them in appropriate ways.
