Welcome back. For this final day of the decorators lesson, I got another code challenge for you. It's more an open challenge, which you also can do
0:11
on the Code Challenge platform, and basically it's to write a decorator of your own choice. You can just look at your code maybe,
0:18
refactor things that are repetitive, but I leave you totally free to build something that's useful for your needs.
0:25
For example, when we did the #100DaysOfCode, at Day 95, we used a decorator of our own. By the way, here you see how cool it is
0:37
to keep a log of your progress, 'cause you can always go back to all the scripts you have written. So here, Day 95, we used a decorator
0:46
to cache movie results. And here we wrote a decorator to store or cache movie results. It's doing that in the store helper, which you can see here.
0:57
So that's an example of how we used the decorator for our own needs. And that's what I challenge you to do by taking this challenge.

And, of course, we invite you to PR, or pull request, your work. And there are instructions here to get set up with git
1:12
and pull request your work, which you can also do here on the platform. By the way, don't forget to share your awesome scripts
1:21
on Twitter using #100DaysOfCode and feel free to include us. Tag Python and PyBites. We are really happy to see what you all come up with.

So enjoy, and learn a lot about decorators.
