PyCon.DE 2018: Python Birdies: Codegolfing For Better Understanding (And Fun) - Jonathan Oberländer

Описание: Codegolfing means taking a programming task and trying to answer it with a byte-minimal correct solution. Such an answer often takes shortcuts, is horribly inefficient, and definitely violates almost 100% of PEP 8. Like any playful interaction with a subject, it can however improve your understanding of it, as well as teach you about weird interactions regarding operator precedence, lexer quirks and more.

After going over basic definitions, I will take a small number of well-known or straightforward programming tasks and go through the act of golfing an answer together step by step.
