Elevate Your Python: Harnessing the Power of Abstract Base Classes (ABCs)

Introduction One cool object-oriented programming (OOP) technique / pattern is enforcing consistent interfaces. In Python you can use Abstract Base Classes (ABCs) for that. 🐍 Using ABCs ensures that all subclasses implement the required methods. This can make it easier to maintain and extend the existing code base. Update Feb 2024: you can also leverage… Continue reading Elevate Your Python: Harnessing the Power of Abstract Base Classes (ABCs)

Avoiding Silent Failures in Python: Best Practices for Error Handling

In the world of programming, errors are inevitable. But how we choose to handle these errors can make the difference between a system that is robust and user-friendly and one that is fraught with ambiguous issues 😱 The Zen of Python famously states, “Errors should never pass silently.” This principle emphasizes the importance of addressing… Continue reading Avoiding Silent Failures in Python: Best Practices for Error Handling
