 Here are some Python tips to keep in mind that will help you write clean, efficient, and bug-free code.     Python Tips for Effective Coding 1. Code Readability and PEP 8  Always aim for clean and readable code by following PEP 8 guidelines.  Use meaningful variable names, avoid excessively long lines (stick to 79 characters), and organize imports properly. 2. Use List Comprehensions List comprehensions are concise and often faster than regular for-loops. Example: squares = [x**2 for x in range(10)] instead of creating an empty list and appending each square value. 3. Take Advantage of Python’s Built-in Libraries  Libraries like itertools, collections, math, and datetime provide powerful functions and data structures that can simplify your code.   For example, collections.Counter can quickly count elements in a list, and itertools.chain can flatten nested lists. 4. Use enumerate Instead of Range     When you need both the index ...

Python Delete Duplicates in List Faster Way

Removing duplicates in List simplified using SET method. It's a simple method. Just you need SET and Print to remove duplicates. Removing duplicates is common in Data science projects.

Faster way to remove list duplicates

Faster way to remove list duplicates

  • Create a List

List with duplicates

my_list = ['The', 'unanimous', 'Declaration', 'of', 'the', 'thirteen','united', 'States', 'of', 'America,', 'When', 'in', 'the', 'Course', 'of', 'human']



Apply set method


>>> non_dupes = set(my_list)
