50% Of Python Developers Get THIS Wrong

50% of Python developers get this wrong. #python #code #shorts

[humanrightsadvocate]

According to this video, if you've just started to learn Python, you're better than 50% of Python developers.

[ashimdahal]

0% of any python programmer gets this wrong if they have a strong foundation yeah.

[Dev-Siri]

"In most programming languages, this would raise an error"
**cough* javascript **coug h***

[sobbski]

I'm gonna write my code without numbers from now on

[RexVelde]

I would also like to inform that a plus in binary is exactly the same as "or", such that 0 + 1 == 0 | 1, which also makes sense, even though booleans in python are just 1 and zeroes.

[nuhozubaedsalam]

Being Python a derivative of C, it's logical that boolean values are also computed as integers

[OL]

My guess is that 90% of people viewing this video are not in the 50% who got this wrong 😅

[ProfRoxas]

This got me curious and checked to see that this is explicitly stated in the documentation too.
Just wasnt sure if this is stated or just comes from the CPython implementation

[gast]

As a C++ developer this is not strange. Boolean conversion to int etc.

[CC-.]

Let me try in Javascript Yeah 👍!


😂

[aravindmuthu]

devs in the land of JS: _reality can be whatever I want_

[insertcreativenamehere]

fun fact: because of this, you can use sum(bool_list) to count the number of Trues in a list

[jeremyhb]

It is the same in javascript. I think most of the scripting languages have this feature not only python

[sungjuyea]

As the same as JS, I don't really understand why people keep saying about those "weird" behaviors of those languages that 99% of the developers writing production code would never consider in the least.

[mamaafrica]

Javascript does this too in a weird manner

[frosty]

“Most languages raise an error.” That’s false. Any language with static typing would raise an error, but you can always explicitly convert it to an int and get 11. Any language without static typing will just give you 11.

[poojapoojitha]

same go with js, console.log(true+1) // output: 11

[devmarboy]

that’s how I make my key inputs in c++ rightKey - leftKey

[FireChronos]

Having a background in Obj C I took one look at that and said "11".
While(1){} is something I will use in my own code no one will read because I don't want to type out "true".

[zxopink]

First time I expect something and python doesn't disappoint, follows C's rules
