**New video: Debug Python the Right Way** Got a Python traceback but no idea why? The VS Code debugger shows the actual data — no print() rewriting, no guesswork. Breakpoints, variables panel, debug console, and watch expressions — all on a real script hitting an IOS-XR device via the free Cisco DevNet Always-On Sandbox. Part 3 of the Month of Developer Productivity series. 🔗 https://cs.co/6047BBKdlW #DeveloperProductivity #CiscoDevNet #NetworkAutomation #PythonDebugging #VSCode

Show HN: Goempy – Ship a CPython interpreter inside your Go binary. 🚀 Goempy embeds a CPython interpreter directly into a Go binary, letting you run Python code and leverage Python libraries from inside a Go service. No separate Python runtime required—great for simplifying deployment and keeping dependencies in sync. Why it matters - Single self-contained binary for distribution - Easier cross-language workflows between Go and Python - Quick experimentation with Python tooling inside Go components Use cases - Data pipelines that rely on Python libraries from Go - Plugin architectures where Python scripts extend Go apps - Prototyping Python logic inside a Go service Learn more: https://t.co/iw5uaveagD https://t.co/xOeJGPwKDB #Goempy #CPython #Go

#Python includes a handy built-in function called `exec()` that can execute arbitrary code Never expose your APIs to this or the related `eval()` function since that could allow people to harm your computer!

20+ years of business in a nutshell: Details matter. In Python, the is operator is a silent trap. It checks if two variables point to the same memory address, not if they have the same value. Senior developers know that Python’s memory management handles 256 and 257 completely differently. Don't just write code—understand the "game beneath the game". #PythonDeveloper #CleanCode #SoftwareArchitecture #ProgrammingTips #CareerGrowth

In this week’s lecture, Dr. Hartmut Kaiser focuses on the seamless integration of C++ and Python. The lecture highlights essential foundational concepts by exploring how to combine the user-friendliness and extensive library ecosystem of Python with the raw performance of C++, setting the stage for highly efficient scientific computing. A core discussion demonstrates how to utilize the Pybind11 library as a lightweight solution for creating Python bindings, specifically addressing the practical challenges of mapping C++ functions, classes, and diverse data types. Finally, critical strategies for integrating NumPy arrays are explored, offering a comprehensive approach to maximizing performance in advanced mathematical and data-driven applications.

In this eighth video of the series Python for Tweens, we look at how to draw the Antigua and Barbuda flag. This posed a bit of a challenge due to the design of the flag. The task was to first draw the black section of the flag then the rising star on it. Once this was done, drawing the remaining sections of the flag was straight forward. Python for Tweens is a series intended to teach children ages 10 - 12 how to program using the Python Turtle Graphics module. https://lnkd.in/exbnftmd
