The Python library itertools contains many useful functions. 🐍✨

One of them is compress(), which returns an iterator over the elements from data, for which the corresponding element in selectors is equal to True. 🔍💻

Here's an example: 📝👇

Do you know that Python can shift sequences without slicing and creating new lists? 🤔

When you need to cyclically shift data, many use slicing:

data = data[-1:] + data[:-1]

But deque.rotate() does this at the level of the data structure and usually works more efficiently for cyclical operations. 🚀

q.rotate(1)

A negative value rotates the queue in the other direction. ⬅️

q.rotate(-2)

This is useful for ring buffers, task schedulers, cyclical queues, and round-robin algorithms. 🔄

workers.rotate(-1)

🔥 deque.rotate() allows you to implement cyclical data structures without manual index logic and without creating new lists. 💡

How to check for the presence of subclasses in Python? 🐍🧐

Here's how you can do it:

import inspect

def has_subclasses(cls):
    return any(issubclass(sub, cls) for sub in inspect.getmembers(sys.modules[cls.__module__], inspect.isclass))

This function uses the inspect module to find all subclasses of the given class. 🛠️

📂 Reminder about Python map()!

map() — a built-in function that applies the specified function to each element of an iterable object (list, tuple, set, etc.).

The picture shows the basic syntax, an example of use with lambda, and a typical case — data transformation without a manual for loop.

Save it to quickly remember the syntax!

Why is enumerate() used in Python? 🤔🐍

It allows you to simultaneously obtain the value of an element and its index when iterating through a list. 📊✨

This is more convenient and more readable than manually working with a counter. ✅🚀

for i, item in enumerate(items):
    print(i, item)

Data validation with Pydantic! 🐍✨

In the early stages of development, data validation usually doesn't cause problems. In many Python projects, validation initially looks simple:

if not isinstance(age, int):
    raise ValueError("age must be an int")

But then come email, JSON from APIs, query parameters, nested objects, configs, nullable fields, and type conversion. At some point, the code turns into a set of if/else and manual checks.

For such tasks, Pydantic is often used. Installation:

pip install pydantic
pip install "pydantic[email]"

Create a model:

from pydantic import BaseModel

class User(BaseModel):
    name: str
    age: int

Now the data is validated automatically:

user = User(
    name="Alex",
    age="30"
)

print(user.age)
print(type(user.age))

The result:
30
<class 'int'>

Pydantic will automatically convert the string "30" to an int. If you pass an incorrect value, you'll get a ValidationError:

User(
    name="Alex",
    age="test"
)

This is especially convenient when working with APIs, JSON, query parameters, and incoming data from outside.

A common production case is checking email:

from pydantic import BaseModel, EmailStr

class User(BaseModel):
    email: EmailStr

User(email="alex@test.com")

If the email is invalid, Pydantic will throw a ValidationError. You can set default values:

from pydantic import BaseModel

class Config(BaseModel):
    host: str = "localhost"
    port: int = 5432

And allow None:

from pydantic import BaseModel

class User(BaseModel):
    nickname: str | None = None

This field becomes optional. A practical example is processing an API response:

from pydantic import BaseModel

class Product(BaseModel):
    id: int
    title: str
    price: float

data = {
    "id": "1",
    "title": "Keyboard",
    "price": "99.5"
}

product = Product(**data)

print(product)

The types will be automatically converted. For nested model structures, you can combine:

from pydantic import BaseModel

class Address(BaseModel):
    city: str
    zip_code: str

class User(BaseModel):
    name: str
    address: Address

user = User(
    name="Alex",
    address={
        "city": "Berlin",
        "zip_code": "10115"
    }
)

print(user)

The nested object will also be validated. Serialization in Pydantic v2:

print(user.model_dump())
print(user.model_dump_json())

Pydantic is actively used in FastAPI, ETL, microservices, data pipelines, and API clients.

For working with environment variables in Pydantic v2, a separate package is usually used:

pip install pydantic-settings

It's important to understand: Pydantic is not an ORM and does not replace business logic. Its task is to validate data, convert types, and describe schemas.

🔥 Pydantic significantly reduces the amount of manual data validation and makes processing incoming structures more predictable.
