Session Goal

The session aimed to enhance Python coding techniques focusing on JSON manipulation and file handling.

Key Activities

• Implemented a Python script to save the length of a base_names list to text files.
• Demonstrated reading from text files using Python’s open() and read() methods.
• Provided a method to split a string of base names into a list for easier manipulation.
• Optimized Python code for editing JSON objects, removing unnecessary iterations.
• Updated JSON editing script to ensure each base name has a single edited version saved.
• Showcased how to display JSON with indentation using the json.dump() function for readability.
• Explained the use of json.dumps() for printing indented JSON objects.

Achievements

• Successfully optimized JSON handling and file operations in Python.
• Improved readability and maintainability of JSON outputs.

Pending Tasks

• Further testing of the optimized JSON editing scripts to ensure robustness.
• Explore additional Python libraries for advanced JSON manipulation.
