Oh the (Methods) You Can (Make): By Dunder Seuss
You can make many methods
Over 100 to be exact
That start with two underscores
What do you think of that?
The runtime, it calls these
At points A or B
To do special magic
At runtime, you see.
You may have seen __getattr__ or __init__
But __rfloordiv__? What's the point of it?
Come take a quick tour, your mother won't mind
And hear a talk that's one-of-a-kind
About how Python uses them under-the-hood
And how you can use them to write code that's real good
Speaker: Joshua Cannon
Howdy y'all! Sometimes I'm a Build Engineer and talk your ear off about tools and developer experience. Sometimes I go by "Dunder Seuss" and perform "edutainment" about Python itself. But mostly I'm just here to have fun and enjoy the company of others.
