What is Modern Python?

Modern Good Practices for Python Development

Python's type system explained: Static vs dynamic typing

Type Hints should be used by Professional Developers

Type hints are the biggest change in the history of Python since the unification of types and classes in Python 2.2, released in 2001. However, type hints do not benefit all Python users equally. That’s why they should always be optional.

The goal of Type Hints is to help developer tools find bugs in Python codebases via static analysis, i.e., without actually running the code through tests. The main beneficiaries are professional software engineers using IDEs (Integrated Development Environments) and CI (Continuous Integration). The cost-benefit analysis that makes type hints attractive to this group does not apply to all users of Python. However, we are professional developers, therefore it is beneficial for us to adopt type hints. This Modern Python course uses Type Hints extensively.

  2. Chapter 5 of Python for Data Analysis: Data Wrangling with pandas, NumPy, and Jupyter 3rd Edition

Reference Book

Fluent Python: Clear, Concise, and Effective Programming 2nd Edition

Important Note:

Chapters 8 and 15 have detailed discussions on the latest typing functionality, however, the book doesn't mention that as of Python 3.9, type aliases like List, Tuple, Dict, ... are deprecated.

So, we should use the built-in types list, tuple, dict, ...

Using List/Tuple/etc. from typing vs directly referring type as list/tuple/etc
