    ## Dive into the Magic of Jupyter %%cellmagic! ✨📚 Hey there, fellow data enthusiasts! 👋 Today, let's dive into the fascinating world of Jupyter's `%%cellmagic` 🪄. This little-known feature can supercharge your Jupyter Notebook workflow! 🚀💡 ### What's `%%cellmagic`? 🧙‍♂️✨ In the Jupyter ecosystem, `%magic` and `%%cellmagic` commands add special functionalities to your notebook cells. Think of them as magical commands that can transform how your cells behave! 🌟 For example, `%%time` can measure the execution time of a cell. But what if you want to create your own custom magic? That's where `%%cellmagic` shines! 💥 ### Example: Create Your Own Cell Magic 🛠️🔮 Let's say you want to create a custom magic that processes a cell in a specific way. Here's a simple example to get you started: ```python from IPython.core.magic import (Magics, magics_class, cell_magic, needs_local_scope) @magics_class class class_mycellmagic(Magics):     @needs_local_scope ...

When it comes to displaying output in Python, the `print` function is the go-to method for many developers. However, in an interactive environment like Jupyter Notebook, the `IPython.display` module offers powerful alternatives for richer, more dynamic outputs. In particular, `IPython.display` can render HTML from markdown using a custom `_repr_markdown_` method. Let's explore these two approaches and see how they differ. 🌟 ## The Classic `print` Function 🖨️ The `print` function is straightforward and widely used for displaying text and simple data: ```python print("Hello, world!") ``` ### Pros 👍 - **Simple and Easy**: Perfect for quick and basic output. - **Widely Used**: Available in any Python environment. ### Cons 👎 - **Limited Formatting**: Basic text output with limited styling. - **Static Output**: Cannot handle rich media like HTML, images, or interactive content. ## The Power of `IPython.display` 🚀 The `IPython.display` module can render rich content such as...

In Python, we often use print 🖨️ statements with parentheses to output values. However, there's a creative way to print values without using braces by leveraging properties in a custom class. Let's dive into how we can achieve this using a custom class design. 🔍 ## Custom Class Design 🛠️ Here’s a simple class that allows printing values without the need for parentheses: ```python class disp_cls():     def __init__(self):         return     @property     def out(self):         return self     @out.setter     def out(self, other):         print(other)         return disp = disp_cls() disp.out = 1, 2, 3 ``` ### Breakdown 🧩 1. **Class Definition**: We define a class called `disp_cls`. 2. **Constructor**: The `__init__` method initializes the class but doesn't do anything spec...

In Python, there are many ways to create a simple data container class to store attributes. Let's explore two straightforward methods: using a generic object and using the `type()` function. Both methods allow us to easily create and manipulate objects with dynamic attributes. 🌟 ## Method 1: Using a Generic Object 💼 In this method, we create a generic object class and add attributes to it dynamically. ```python class generic_object():     pass o1 = generic_object() o1.a = 1 print(o1.a)  # Output: 1 ``` ### Breakdown 🛠️ 1. **Class Definition**: We define an empty class called `generic_object`. 2. **Object Creation**: We create an instance of this class called `o1`. 3. **Adding Attributes**: We dynamically add an attribute `a` to `o1` and set its value to `1`. 4. **Accessing Attributes**: We access and print the value of `a`, which is `1`. This method is simple and flexible, allowing us to add any attribute to our object on the fly. 🎈 ## Method 2: Using the `type()...

Today, let's dive into one of the coolest features in Python: the `with` statement! 🎉 Whether you're a newbie or a seasoned coder, this powerful tool is a must-know. So, grab your favorite beverage ☕, and let's explore the magic of `with`, context managers, and the enter/exit methods. 🚀 ## What is with the "with" Statement? 🤔 In simple terms, the `with` statement in Python is used to wrap the execution of a block of code. This ensures that certain setup and teardown tasks are performed, which is super handy when working with resources like files, network connections, or even database transactions. 📁🌐🗄️ ### Basic Syntax Here's the basic syntax: ```python with expression as variable:     # Your code block ``` For example, opening and reading a file becomes a breeze: ```python with open('example.txt', 'r') as file:     content = file.read()     print(content) ``` No need to explicitly close the file! The `with` statement takes care of it. ...

  Ever felt limited by plain variables in your Python classes? Fear not, the @property decorator swoops in like a superhero to add some superpowers ‍* to your code! With @property , accessing a variable becomes an action, not just a read. Let's see how it elevates our humble Fraction class: class Fraction : def __init__ ( self, numerator, denominator ): self.numerator = numerator self.denominator = denominator @property def value ( self ): """Calculates and returns the actual fraction value.""" if self.denominator == 0 : raise ZeroDivisionError( "Oops! Denominator can't be zero." ) # Handle division by zero return self.numerator / self.denominator @value.setter # Setter for the "value" property def value ( self, new_value_tuple ): """Sets the numerator and denominator based on the provided value.""" numerator, denominator = new_...
