Welcome back. In this second and third day, I encourage you to take our Code Challenge 30. It's The Art of Refactoring: Improve Your Code.

And, the task of today and tomorrow is to get some of your code, run tests and do some refactorings, making it more Pythonic.

Also, I would recommend to start looking at Flake8, or Pylint. I personally use Flake8. And integrate that into your editor.

And have a check upon each save. Or, what I did, for example, in the vimrc, I have a shortcut:, f. And when I press that,

it runs Flake8 and it opens a new editor window where it highlights my PEP8 violations. So that way I keep my files clean during development.

Optionally, you can look at Code Challenge 35 and use Better Code Hub to look at your code quality overall. Using how we use the tool
1:03
to improve a couple of our projects. And don't forget to tweet out your progress.

You can mention Talk Python and PyBites in your tweets, and we would love to see what refactorings you come up with,

or what your favorite Pythonic concept is you learned from this lesson. Alright, good luck and have fun.
