This now finishes our look at Python and it certainly has been a brief tour. We can again emphasize the similarities that you will see in many languages and the importance of learning any coding language. What you learn in one language will help in most other languages that you come across.
What we learn from the Zen of Python will help us design and develop great code. We can print the Zen of Python using the following Python code:
>>>import this
We can type the code on the REPL prompt. Keeping your code clean and well spaced-out will aid readability and ultimately this will help with code maintenance.
We have also seen that Python likes you to be explicit in your code and will not implicitly convert data types.
Finally, we saw how to manipulate strings using Python.
We are also at the end of the book but hopefully, the start of your scripting career. Good luck...
