Interactive Quiz ⋅ 6 QuestionsBy Martin Breuss Share In this quiz, you’ll test your understanding of the Python Global Interpreter Lock (GIL). The GIL allows only one thread to hold the control of the Python interpreter. This has advantages, but can also be a performance bottleneck in CPU-bound and multi-threaded code. By working through this quiz, you’ll revisit the impact of the GIL on the performance of your Python programs and how to mitigate it. The quiz contains 6 questions […]

The bytes data type is an immutable sequence of unsigned bytes used for handling binary data in Python. You can create a bytes object using the literal syntax, the bytes() function, or the bytes.fromhex() method. Since bytes are closely related to strings, you often convert between the two data types, applying the correct character encoding. This tutorial starts with a brief overview of binary data fundamentals, setting the scene for the remaining part, which delves into creating and manipulating bytes […]

In the world of data analysis and manipulation, Python has long been the go-to language. With extensive and user-friendly libraries like NumPy, pandas, and PySpark, there’s a solution available for almost any data-driven task. Among these libraries, one name that’s been generating a significant amount of buzz lately is Polars. Polars is a high-performance DataFrame library, designed to provide fast and efficient data processing capabilities. Inspired by the reigning pandas library, Polars takes things to another level, offering a seamless […]

Watch Now This tutorial has a related video course created by the Real Python team. Watch it together with the written tutorial to deepen your understanding: Mastering While Loops Python’s while loop enables you to execute a block of code repeatedly as long as a given condition remains true. Unlike for loops, which iterate a known number of times, while loops are ideal for situations where the number of iterations isn’t known upfront. Loops are a pretty useful construct in […]

Interactive Quiz ⋅ 11 QuestionsBy Leodanis Pozo Ramos Share In this quiz, you’ll test your understanding of Python while Loops: Repeating Tasks Conditionally. The while keyword is used to initiate a loop that repeats a block of code while a condition is true. A while loop works by evaluating a condition at the start of each iteration. If the condition is true, then the loop executes. Otherwise, it terminates. The quiz contains 11 questions and there is no time limit. […]
