I was writing some Python code today, and I had some logic best served by a case statement. I remembered that Python doesn't have a case statement, but I decided to google to see if there was a suitably pythonic pattern I should use instead.
Aha! Python v3.10 introduced a case statement, and I'm currently using v3.13. Excellent. I scanned the syntax, then added the relevant lines to my code.
After I'd finished that bit of coding, I went and read the official Python tutorial. Of course, Python being Python, its 'case' statement is actually a very sophisticated and powerful 'structural pattern matching' statement. I might have some fun with this...
So, every day in every way, at least Python is getting better and better.
