It’s more about learning the language’s library, which typically is too large to remember in detail, than about learning the language, which typically is small enough for that.
- sgarland 1y agoThe complaints listed seem to focus on attributes / methods of a class. You can read Python’s docs, and see the methods available to a str type, for example. To me, that’s learning the language. Learning its library would be more like knowing that the module `string` contains the function `capwords`, which can be used to - as the name suggests - capitalize (to title case) all words in a string. Hopefully, one would also know that the `str` class contains the method `upper`, so as not to confuse it with `string.capwords`.
