Deleting Python-compiled files

When you run your project for the first time, Python compiles all of your *.py code in bytecode-compiled files, *.pyc, which are used later for execution. Normally, when you change the *.py files, *.pyc is recompiled; however, sometimes when you switch branches or move the directories, you need to clean up the compiled files manually.

Getting ready

Use your favorite editor and edit or create a .bash_profile file in your home directory.

How to do it...

1. Add this alias at the end of .bash_profile, as follows:

# ~/.bash_profile
alias delpyc...
