What is The Walrus Operator in Python?

Easy to understand

in the first example if you did not use () between the walrus and the non equality operator then the lower priority of the walrus operator would cause a problem.
you can not use command := input() != 'q' ; unless (command := input) != 'q'

You look like "TechWithTeam" channel but older 😹

There are many more good uses for the walrus operator. Some of the uses can be found in James Powell's vids...

Bro your examples was awesome! thanks

The problem is that lines tends to get too long.

Is this potentially something that a compiler could "figure out" at run time, and "optimize" what actually gets run toward the more efficient method of doing it?

Idk the formal words to use, I just know I've seen comparisons between python and C, and shown that certain things written in python that might look "not optimal" is actually interpreted by the compiler at run time and "figured out" and "made" more efficient by using the "actual" best method that should/could have been used

So this is basically a simple C++ assignment opeator, right?

Amazing!

don't tell me this is something that very little people know about, i have waited for this operator to be added in one of the languages since i programmed in Pascal!

As for the last example, doesn’t Python interpreter optimise it automatically? As far as i know in C if you call function with the same argument for a few times its result is kept in memory. This optimisation is made by compiler

The example with list comprehension was nice, I always wondered if this was possible without calling the same function twice, I will use it for sure

Good video 📸 👍

Yo I just downloaded python 3.10.0 and I don't have any of the things you have. Like the side bar and the top bar. Is there something i need to set up to get those? I only have the black command console.

Epic

are u lil supa?

The most unknown is

A @ B

would prefer readability for future sanity purposes..
good tutorial though..tks

TIL the Walrus Operator is called the Walrus Operator because it looks like a Walrus. Literally had no idea what it's purpose was until this video.

also known as an assignment expression, amazing stuff

Always teaching new stuff thanks Man

I've been using it for quite some time. This actually makes doing certain tasks easy.

Awesome tutorial
I have seen some code with colon in the function.

def my_func(int : something):
pass

If possible please make a video on what this is and how it works.
Thanks

Why are your other videos which are very important to us are not clear as this one?

I think its a nice Idea to know, but its the opposite of a pure "function" in the context of functional programming.

Another interesting use case might be if you do list comprehension in combination with slow rest requests for example.

Guido von Rossum quit his gig as THE Python guy over the walrus operator. Not so much the operator itself as much as the bitter fighting that erupted over it's inclusion.
Part of the argument was that if == vs = could cause problems, imagine what kind of trouble you could get in with accidental assignments when you really just wanted a boolean result.
There were many in the community that felt non explicit assignments were as evil as the reviled 'Goto'.
Sorry I had to use language like that here, but sometimes just have to man up and know there were in the past forms of code worse than Stalin, Mao, and Hitler combined.
Funny thing is, the same peeps that loved goto hated recursion. Having a subroutine call itself was considered extremely naughty back in the day.

Wow this is very helpful specially for while loop. Thank you so much

hello sir I want to create a ml+ai bot that operates a small machine to operate that machine it will learn from the videos ,but the problem is that how should I make it learn from the videos

Good Job!

In K&R C: while ((c = getchar()) != 'q')

Luckily I knew abt that one.

glad i knew this last two weeks ago.

I saw the walrus operator in the wild a few weeks ago and I couldn't find a decent explanation of its purpose in Python. I was pretty pumped when I saw this video pop up in my feed.

Sir make a video on Google map clone from python.

i remember reading about this when they added it and not understanding anything

Nice I didn't even knew this one exists lol
