📔 Python Learning Log: Examining Runtime Today I studied “Examining runtime” in DataCamp’s Writing Efficient Python Code course. I learned how IPython provides powerful tools like magic commands, and how %timeit / %%timeit help measure code performance accurately. A key takeaway for me was the difference between runs and loops, and why looking at the fastest execution time (best) is important when comparing code efficiency — it reflects the code’s true potential, not environmental noise. This lesson helped me shift from guessing which code is faster to verifying it with data. Step by step, I’m learning how to write Python code that is not only correct, but also efficient and readable. 🐍 #Python #DataCamp #DataScienceJourney
