relatively simple syntax in python we | 2,535.92 | 4.159 |
can use square brackets not just to go | 2,538.319 | 3.841 |
to specific elements like bracket zero | 2,540.079 | 4.641 |
or bracket one we can also get subsets | 2,542.16 | 4.88 |
of the list slices of the list by doing | 2,544.72 | 5.28 |
bracket something colon something where | 2,547.04 | 4.64 |
each of those somethings is a number the | 2,550 | 2.96 |
beginning or the end and they're | 2,551.68 | 2.88 |
optional depending on whether you want | 2,552.96 | 4.399 |
all of them or just some | 2,554.56 | 5.6 |
any questions now on this version which | 2,557.359 | 4.161 |
adds the loop | 2,560.16 | 5.12 |
and these slices with that new syntax | 2,561.52 | 6.079 |
can we slice starting from the end | 2,565.28 | 5.12 |
of the argument argument vector | 2,567.599 | 4.72 |
you can you can slice something from the | 2,570.4 | 3.679 |
end of the argument vector and this | 2,572.319 | 4.241 |
might uh this might blow one's mind a | 2,574.079 | 5.441 |
little bit let me go ahead and do this | 2,576.56 | 4.96 |
uh let's see let me go ahead and do | 2,579.52 | 4.24 |
negative one at the end using a negative | 2,581.52 | 4.4 |
number here and running the same command | 2,583.76 | 4.319 |
we've just uninvited wrong shin from | 2,585.92 | 4.48 |
receiving a name tag here so if you use | 2,588.079 | 4.561 |
a negative number it has the effect of | 2,590.4 | 4.16 |
counting to the uh in the other | 2,592.64 | 4.479 |
direction from the end of the list a | 2,594.56 | 4.16 |
good question there other questions now | 2,597.119 | 3.361 |
on slices on | 2,598.72 | 4.96 |
looping over sys.rgv | 2,600.48 | 5.76 |
hi uh so i remember very early on uh | 2,603.68 | 4.32 |
when we were talking about uh only | 2,606.24 | 4.56 |
having two decimal places in uh in an um | 2,608 | 5.2 |
float value um | 2,610.8 | 3.36 |
does this | 2,613.2 | 3.84 |
is is that in the same vein like um | 2,614.16 | 6.64 |
because we use the the colon point two f | 2,617.04 | 6.48 |
uh so that's is that the same thing then | 2,620.8 | 5.279 |
uh why would the f be included then | 2,623.52 | 4.88 |
in the point two f | 2,626.079 | 4.161 |
as opposed to here when you just have | 2,628.4 | 3.679 |
the numbers | 2,630.24 | 3.839 |
a really good question and it's just the | 2,632.079 | 4.24 |
short answer is that context matters so | 2,634.079 | 4.561 |
there's only so many keyboard keys on | 2,636.319 | 4.241 |
our keyboard and so we sometimes use the | 2,638.64 | 3.84 |
same symbols for different things so | 2,640.56 | 4.48 |
what you're alluding to is the format | 2,642.48 | 4.639 |
code in in fstring for actually | 2,645.04 | 4.48 |
formatting a number using a colon using | 2,647.119 | 4.72 |
a period using a number using the letter | 2,649.52 | 4.96 |
f and so forth and that is very specific | 2,651.839 | 5.28 |
to the f string feature of python this | 2,654.48 | 4.72 |
case has nothing to do with any of that | 2,657.119 | 4.401 |
syntax per se this is just using a colon | 2,659.2 | 4.24 |
in a different context to solve this | 2,661.52 | 4 |
problem to implement a slice the authors | 2,663.44 | 3.919 |
of python could have chosen another | 2,665.52 | 3.599 |
symbol but honestly looking down at my | 2,667.359 | 3.361 |
keyboard here we don't have that many to | 2,669.119 | 3.441 |
choose from that are easy to type so | 2,670.72 | 3.52 |
sometimes they have different meanings a | 2,672.56 | 4.08 |
good question as well allow me to | 2,674.24 | 4.96 |
propose now that we take things further | 2,676.64 | 4.959 |
and move away from using only those | 2,679.2 | 4.56 |
modules those libraries that python | 2,681.599 | 4.561 |
comes with to talk about more generally | 2,683.76 | 4.64 |
packages that exist one of the reasons | 2,686.16 | 4.4 |
that python is so popular and powerful | 2,688.4 | 3.84 |
these days is that there's a lot of | 2,690.56 | 4.24 |
third-party libraries out there as well | 2,692.24 | 5.04 |
otherwise known as packages strictly | 2,694.8 | 6.08 |
speaking python itself has a term of art | 2,697.28 | 6.559 |
called a package which is a module | 2,700.88 | 4.719 |
essentially that's implemented in a | 2,703.839 | 4.401 |
folder not just a file but a folder but | 2,705.599 | 4.961 |
more generally a package is a | 2,708.24 | 5.119 |
third-party library that you that i can | 2,710.56 | 5.12 |
install on our own mac or pc or our | 2,713.359 | 6.48 |
cloud server and gain access to even | 2,715.68 | 4.159 |
and this is a website that is searchable | 2,731.28 | 4 |
via the command line as well as via the | 2,733.28 | 3.92 |
web that allows you to download and | 2,735.28 | 4.559 |
install all sorts of packages even cs50 | 2,737.2 | 4.72 |
has some of its own packages | 2,739.839 | 4.561 |
in services like these now there's a fun | 2,741.92 | 3.84 |
one out there that's a throwback to a | 2,744.4 | 2.8 |
command that's been around for years in | 2,745.76 | 4.079 |
command line environments called cowsei | 2,747.2 | 5.119 |
causee is a package in python that | 2,749.839 | 5.041 |
allows you to have a cow say something | 2,752.319 | 4.8 |
on your screen if curious to read up on | 2,754.88 | 5.52 |
it its own documentation is on pipi.org | 2,757.119 | 5.841 |
specifically at this url here but how do | 2,760.4 | 4.88 |
you actually get the package into your | 2,762.96 | 4.32 |
system well technically you could figure | 2,765.28 | 4.4 |
out how to download the file and maybe | 2,767.28 | 4.079 |
unzip it and put it into the right | 2,769.68 | 4.159 |
location on your mac or pc but nowadays | 2,771.359 | 4.641 |
a lot of languages python among them has | 2,773.839 | 4.081 |
