Default arguments in Python functions provide convenient ways to assign values to parameters when no explicit arguments are provided. However, misusing mutable default arguments, such as lists or dictionaries, can introduce unexpected behavior and lead to bugs in your code. In this article, we’ll explore the potential pitfalls of misusing mutable default arguments and discuss best practices for handling defaults in a safer manner.
Working with lists, sets, and dictionaries is a common task in Python programming. Often, we may need to remove all the elements from a list, set, or dictionary for various reasons. Python provides a simple and efficient way to clear all the elements from these data structures using the clear() method. In this article, we will discuss how to use the clear() method to remove all elements from a list, set, or dictionary.
One of the common things that you can notice in many tasks is the fact that you need to sort elements in a list. In fact, this can also be part of an interview that you may go through while applying for a job. Maybe not only sorting elements, but sorting elements fulfilling certain conditions.

Strings are pretty common in our day-to-day programming lives. One common task that we may need to do is perform a switch from one case to another one.
Of course, it’s not supposed to be a standalone task in Jira. Rather, it can be just a tiny portion of a larger task.
Since your time is valuable and you can invest it in more useful things, it is worth knowing that you can do such switches quickly in Python with built-in functions without having you do any implementation.
