There's a fun animated series named "One Punch Man". Surprisingly, it offers many great lessons for mastering Python.
The story is set in a somewhat more contemporary environment than our own, where heroes defend cities from constantly invading creatures. Consider a parade of miniature Godzilla or Mothra-like creatures. However, they are more varied, colorful and sophisticated, as well as varying across their sizes and danger level.
It gets until an official group of heroes is created and ranks are assigned to different perceived abilities. Saitama is the protagonist. Saitama.
He's not as flashy as some of the other heroes.
At first glance, he seems at ease.
However, it is discovered that his effectiveness as a martial arts expert, that he is unrivalled in his ability and ability to take on massive monsters with one strike every time. That's why the name.
This is a comedic show that is full of hilarious moments caused by the heroic-managing institutions that fail to recognize his talent every time. I'm leaving a lot on the table - it's worth a look and watching.
However, the show offers an important lesson to all of us Pythonistas.
The reason for Saitama's innate skill is exposed in the very first season. Every single day, with no fail, he performed his duties.
- 100 pushups.
- 100 situps.
- 100 squats.
- Then, he ran 10 kilometers.
It is amazing how easy this is.
It reminds me of the things that happen when you are able to understand the fundamentals to Python programming Course in Delhi.
OOP For example, OOP. Since OOP is the fundamental premise ALL sophisticated software is built upon. A tiny amount of OOP understanding goes far... however, a greater understanding opens up a whole new universe of software available to you.
or automated tests, like unit tests. Once you are proficient at writing them tests, you will be able to create amazing software systems that even non-test writers can't be able to touch. Writing tests is an actual superpower.
Another point worth noting is that once you are proficient in both, you will notice they increase the potential of one another. OOP increases what you can accomplish with tests and vice versa with exponential growth that can make the programming you were using prior to it seem basic and easy.
Then you can have scaling patterns that take advantage of the memory model of Python... Also, the higher-level abstractions for functions, which form the foundation of more than a dozen well-known Python libraries that you use each everyday... as well the list goes on.
Each one of these is similar to the squats or pushups that Saitama performs regularly.
This is only one of the lessons we can take from Saitama, our friend. There are many more: for instance, his constant search to the weak spot of the monster (I think you'll see the parallels to sophisticated computer "beasts ")... Or how he always seeks the most challenging challenge to test his abilities and improve... And many more lessons.
Find this show or go through the manga it's inspired by. Also, look up other lessons you could use to enhance your skills in coding.
This Powerful Python Newsletter is just for you. The way the reader Charles Hayden puts it:
"I have read a number of books, articles and newsletters throughout the years, and yours is among the top. It's not just about what you write about Python but also how to approach learning."
