Page 1: Advanced Function Concepts

*args and **kwargs:

def example(*args, **kwargs):

for arg in args:

print(arg)

for key, value in kwargs.items():

print(f"{key}: {value}")

Use when number of arguments is unknown.


Page 2: Scope and Namespaces

LEGB Rule:

- Local

- Enclosing

- Global

- Built-in

Use global to modify global variables inside functions.


Page 3: Context Managers

with open('file.txt', 'r') as f:

contents = f.read()

Custom context managers using class or contextlib.

from contextlib import contextmanager

@contextmanager

def managed_resource():

print("Setup")

yield

print("Cleanup")
Page 4: Multithreading

import threading

def worker():

print("Working")

t = threading.Thread(target=worker)

t.start()

t.join()

Good for I/O-bound tasks, not CPU-bound (use multiprocessing for that).
Page 5: Useful Built-in Functions

- len(), type(), range(), zip(), enumerate()

- any(), all(), sorted(), reversed()

- isinstance(), id(), dir(), vars()

Help with inspecting and manipulating objects.
