From the creator

In this video we see how it differs from the very common single-argument form of iter(), how to use it, and what a better alternative is. ― mCoding with James Murphy (https://mcoding.io) Source code: https://github.com/mCodingLLC/VideosSampleCode iter docs: https://docs.python.org/3/library/functions.html#iter assignment expression docs: https://peps.python.org/pep-0572/ SUPPORT ME ⭐ --------------------------------------------------- Patreon: https://patreon.com/mCoding Paypal: https://www.paypal.com/donate/?hosted_button_id=VJY5SLZ8BJHEE Other donations: https://mcoding.io/donate Top patrons and donors: Jameson, Laura M, Vahnekie, Dragos C, Matt R, Casey G, Johan A, John Martin, Jason F, Mutual Information, Neel R BE ACTIVE IN MY COMMUNITY 😄 --------------------------------------------------- Discord: https://discord.gg/Ye9yJtZQuN Github: https://github.com/mCodingLLC/ Reddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/mCoding/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/james.mcoding CHAPTERS --------------------------------------------------- 0:00 Intro 0:12 Single arg iter 1:17 Two arg iter 5:47 Walrus operator
