Fellow Python users!

What are your favorite static analysis tools to use in your Python projects?

I’ve used the following:
🪛isort
🔧flake8
🔨black
🪚pydocstyle
🛠️mypy
⚒️ruff

I’ve just started using ruff and it’s pretty great so far.

Any opinions on these or any of you use something else?

For loops in Python can work like other languages:
e.g. "for (int i = 0; i < array.size(); i++)",
as seen in example A below.

It is better to use for loops in a "for-each" style, as seen in example B:
i.e. "for x in ...".

If you need the indices, example C is the way to go.

In Python there are a few ways to format strings. One of the most powerful methods is known as an "f-string".

You can insert expressions within "{ }" in many different ways including a variable name followed by a "=".

This is great for quick debugging.

I'm attempting to see if I can create a workflow for automating the creation of Python GUI applications by combining Python Fire and Gooey - I've seen someone mentioned doing it before so let's see if I can do it.

I'll let you all know how that goes...
