- What does colon equal (:=) in Python mean? - Stack Overflow
In Python this is simply = To translate this pseudocode into Python you would need to know the data structures being referenced, and a bit more of the algorithm implementation Some notes about psuedocode: := is the assignment operator or = in Python = is the equality operator or == in Python There are certain styles, and your mileage may vary:
- What is Pythons equivalent of (logical-and) in an if-statement?
There is no bitwise negation in Python (just the bitwise inverse operator ~ - but that is not equivalent to not) See also 6 6 Unary arithmetic and bitwise binary operations and 6 7 Binary arithmetic operations The logical operators (like in many other languages) have the advantage that these are short-circuited
- python - What does the caret (^) operator do? - Stack Overflow
Side note, seeing as Python defines this as an xor operation and the method name has "xor" in it, I would consider it a poor design choice to make that method do something not related to xor like exponentiation I think it's a good illustrative example of how it simply calls the __xor__ method, but to do that for real would be bad practice

- What is the reason for having in Python? [duplicate]
In Python 3, they made the operator do a floating-point division, and added the operator to do integer division (i e , quotient without remainder); whereas in Python 2, the operator was simply integer division, unless one of the operands was already a floating point number
- python - Iterating over dictionaries using for loops - Stack Overflow
Why is it 'better' to use my_dict keys() over iterating directly over the dictionary? Iteration over a dictionary is clearly documented as yielding keys It appears you had Python 2 in mind when you answered this, because in Python 3 for key in my_dict keys() will still have the same problem with changing the dictionary size during iteration
- What is :: (double colon) in Python when subscripting sequences?
I know that I can use something like string[3:4] to get a substring in Python, but what does the 3 mean in somesequence[::3]?
- python - What is the purpose of the -m switch? - Stack Overflow
Python 2 4 adds the command line switch -m to allow modules to be located using the Python module namespace for execution as scripts The motivating examples were standard library modules such as pdb and profile, and the Python 2 4 implementation is fine for this limited purpose
