8 Things You Must Know in Python
This activity was a LinkedIn Learning course reviewing 8 basic Python methods. The first of the eight methods is any(); this method returns true if any of the specified items in the iterable are true. The all() method is similar to any(); this method returns true if all of the items in the iterable are true. The video also discussed the enumerate() and zip() methods; enumerate() takes a collection of items and returns it as an enumerate object and adds a counter item as the key for the new object. The zip() method is an iterator of enumerate objects where the first item of each object is paired together, then the second items are paired together, then the third, etc. The fifth method taught is the reverse() method, which just reverses the order of listed elements. The final pair of methods discussed were the min() and max() methods, which return the minimum and maximum values of whatever is entered in the functions.
