Great to see more and more people enjoying these courses. I had so much fun recording them…

What's better than a thorough, relaxed, and friendly Python course?
12 of them (plus a bit more, too), all in one bundle, all for just $400
…and yes, you get access to a forum where you can ask questions, too
The only risk is in missing out…

Why have 1 when you can have 2?

• Both great for beginners
• But different in style

Need leading zeros to display your secret agent codes?
No worries…Python's f-strings got you covered
```
>>> agent_id = 7
>>> agent_name = "James Bond"
>>> f"Agent {agent_id:03}: {agent_name}"
'Agent 007: James Bond'
```
Note the format specifier `:03`
ALT >>> agent_id = 7 >>> agent_name = "James Bond" >>> f"Agent {agent_id:03}: {agent_name}" 'Agent 007: James Bond'

Black Friday is a whole week away!
But also yes. I'm doing a pretty big one for Python Morsels.

I'll be posting a summary of Python sales on Monday (and keeping it updated throughout the week). So please share others!

Python's f-strings immediately interpolate the expressions within their replacement fields (the bit between the curly braces).

I mix up Axis 0 with 1 of Pandas DataFrame.
I wish I could say: it happens.
But no.
It isn't rare.
It even isn't often.
Every! Single! Time! I mix them up 🤷.
Hence this post. So I mix up no more.

Here's how to NOT get a file name from a path in Python.
The string method `split` has a counterpart `rsplit` that starts splitting from the end of the string.
This is useful if you only want the final segment(s) of a string.
![Diagram showing how split and rsplit work. Code:
>>> "This is bananas".split()
['This', 'is', 'bananas']
>>> "This is bananas".rsplit()
['This', 'is', 'bananas']
s = "This is bananas"
first, rest = s.split(maxsplit=1)
print(first) # This
print(rest) # is bananas
s = "This is bananas"
rest, last = s.rsplit(maxsplit=1)
print(last) # bananas
print(rest) # This is](https://pbs.twimg.com/media/G6Nbo9TXUAEjtSz.jpg?name=orig)
