dict objects and that's for a reason
6,171.599
5.12
dict itself is a class in Python if you
6,174.52
4.679
pull up its official documentation here
6,176.719
4.96
and you'll see that it is defined indeed
6,179.199
4.881
as itself a class and that class comes
6,181.679
4
with methods as well and so anytime
6,184.08
3.44
we've manipulated dictionaries we've
6,185.679
4.881
been in underneath the hood using all of
6,187.52
4.84
those same methods and in fact we can
6,190.56
3.84
see this if we're really curious let me
6,192.36
5.2
go back over here to VSS code and let me
6,194.4
5.04
go ahead and create a new file that very
6,197.56
3.92
simply does something like play around
6,199.44
3.679
with data types and let me go ahead and
6,201.48
3.92
create a new file for instance called
6,203.119
5.801
say uh type. piy just so that I can poke
6,205.4
6.199
around inside of some values and in
6,208.92
4.64
type. pi I'm just going to go ahead and
6,211.599
4.12
do this I'm going to print out whatever
6,213.56
5.079
the type is of say the number 50 and
6,215.719
4
this is a function you've not
6,218.639
3.121
necessarily seen me use already and it's
6,219.719
4.121
not one you would frequently use in your
6,221.76
3.959
own code there are other ways to te
6,223.84
3.64
detect if you need to what the type is
6,225.719
5.041
of a variable but in this case type of
6,227.48
5.679
50 is just going to tell me and then
6,230.76
4.359
print out what the data type is of that
6,233.159
3.881
value now hopefully all of us could
6,235.119
3.6
guess that 50 is indeed going to be an
6,237.04
4.28
integer that is an INT but we can see it
6,238.719
4.081
in this way and this too is what's
6,241.32
2.64
powerful about knowing a bit of
6,242.8
2.16
programming if you want to know the
6,243.96
3.04
answer to a question just try it out
6,244.96
3.8
like I am here so let me go ahead and
6,247
4.48
run python of type. piy enter and there
6,248.76
5.72
it is when you print out the type of the
6,251.48
5.96
number 50 you'll see on the screen in
6,254.48
5.44
this cryptic syntax class quotee unquote
6,257.44
4.159
in this is not something that you
6,259.92
3.719
probably want to show to the user but if
6,261.599
3.721
you yourself just want to poke around
6,263.639
3.681
and see what's going on or maybe use
6,265.32
4.12
that information somehow it's certainly
6,267.32
4.279
at your disposal to use with this type
6,269.44
4
function for that let's change it around
6,271.599
4.201
a little bit instead of passing as the
6,273.44
5.32
argument to type 50 as an INT let's type
6,275.8
4.919
something also familiar like hello comma
6,278.76
4.56
World in double or single quotes let me
6,280.719
4.281
go back to my terminal window clear the
6,283.32
3.919
screen and run python of type. again and
6,285
5.56
now voila there it is all this time a
6,287.239
6
sure is also a class we can do this a
6,290.56
4.28
few more times for instance let's go
6,293.239
4.321
ahead and change hello world to just an
6,294.84
5.48
empty list open square bracket close
6,297.56
4.36
square bracket and this is starting to
6,300.32
3.64
look a little cryptic but again notice
6,301.92
3.96
what I'm doing in square brackets is an
6,303.96
4.4
empty list we've done that before that
6,305.88
4.839
is the sole argument to this new type
6,308.36
5.04
function and that's just being passed to
6,310.719
4.801
the print function so that the return
6,313.4
5
value of type is the argument to print
6,315.52
5.119
so if I now run this code python of
6,318.4
6.12
type. there it is a list is a class two
6,320.639
5.761
you might recall that I said that you
6,324.52
3.44
can also create an empty list by
6,326.4
3.759
literally doing list open parenthesis
6,327.96
4.56
close parenthesis this is a bit of an
6,330.159
4.801
inconsistency as we can now identify
6,332.52
5.84
that int and stir and Now list they're
6,334.96
5.36
technically all lowercase and I went to
6,338.36
4.52
Great Lengths of creating my student
6,340.32
5.44
class to have that capital S that's a
6,342.88
6.12
convention because int and stir and list
6,345.76
6.56
and others come with py Pon they decided
6,349
5.4
to make their buil-in data types even
6,352.32
4.24
though their classes all lowercase but
6,354.4
4.04
the convention the recommendation in the
6,356.56
3.24
python Community when creating your
6,358.44
3.759
classes is indeed to capitalize the
6,359.8
4.28
first letter as I did in something like
6,362.199
5
student capital S but list open
6,364.08
4.8
parenthesis closed parenthesis is
6,367.199
3.681
identical to really just two empty
6,368.88
4.16
square brackets if I clear my screen and
6,370.88
5
run type. again you see the exact same
6,373.04
5.079
thing the class is called list let's do
6,375.88
4.96
one more let me change list to not
6,378.119
4.921
square brackets but curly braces we've
6,380.84
4.2
done this before anytime I've done two
6,383.04
4.079
curly braces with nothing in between
6,385.04
4.32
this of course is an empty dictionary or
6,387.119
4.921
a dict object in Python well we can see
6,389.36
4.4
that now let me clear my screen run
6,392.04
3.96
python of type. piy enter and there it
6,393.76
5.04
is class dick it's been there this whole
6,396
