When user-friendliness is causing more confusion than necessary.

Its not very intuitive to "insert at X, Y" IMO, its more intuitive to "insert Y at X"

[dive_bombr]

Thanks, Python, for doing something I didn't ask for and pretending everything is fine.

Just throw an error, dammit.

[BlueSheep]

Logic answer:
[1, 2, 3, null, 3]
(i mean it just makes sense)

I think what we can gather from these videos is that python functions are often poorly named

[rajeshalmarah]

interesting thing to note is that x[4] = 3 will cause an error even though it seems to do same thing - inserting integer 3 at 4th index of x list

Man, I guess I'm dumb asf. How did I pass my exam?

[evanbelcher]

But why is the first argument the index? It feels much more intuitive for the first index to be the item to insert. And that behavior of just inserting at the end is terrible, it just hides logical errors until something bigger breaks

[gazzalifahim]

I like your VSCode theme. Wanna share it's name?

[Duck_side]

I came to the right conclusion but for the wrong reason lol

[broxxad]

Python is always just run first then ask question later lol

[jima]

This is unnecessarily confusing really

[jerycaryy]

Not confusing at all. Just hard to remember documentation off the top of your head

[godnyx]

And that shows you why Python should not be used with anything else that scripting. Same problem with JavaScript, it's unsafe. It's terrible dynamic typed system with things like that make it super hard to debug.

x.insert(y, # IDK if python has an easy infinity number

[itsScream]

This is why i hate python
C/C++/C# my love

[seesikopter]

I Never coded Python but I looked at this and knew it was A… yet I struggle at coding lmao

[whisperSSG]

correction: only 27% can actually understand the documentation

[demo]

And that is why python is garbage in a nutshell

[zdrux]

Honestly a lot of confusion and code-debugging would disappear if Python indices just started at 1.
