Enums Explained In Under 12 Minutes In Python

In today’s video we’re going to be learning about the basics of enums in Python. We will also be covering what a Flag is and how to use the auto() feature.

Flag works like: RED = 1 (001) GREEN = 2 (010) BLUE = 4 (100) ALL = 7 (111) because 001 | 010 | 100 = 111

4 Bit Binary:D (but without the last)

FYI 9:04 it auto completed to black instead of blue. Interesting video. Thanks

[@Indently]

I was fighting with autocomplete each time I wrote blue, and it still got me in the end!

[@theglobalsouth9680]

python doing bitflags is nuts as heck. super awesome! i am ready to use it

[@theglobalsouth9680]

i love bitflags

[@dragweb7725]

i knew about Enums, but not about Flags ! Maybe i really should check the whole documentation of the enum package, it seems it haven't revealed all its best secrets yet !

[@Indently]

I swear that when I was reading the docs a couple years ago I never noticed the Flag bit. Goes to show that re-reading the docs isn't always a bad idea!

[@efe099]

I was just planning to dive in to Enums thanks man

[@murphygreen8484]

Hey Indently! Would you want to do a video refactoring someone's (mine) code?

[@boboblacksheep5003]

Please refactor my code too 😂

[@jamesford3282]

are You guys real?

[@murphygreen8484]

The code works and is a small program. Was thinking it could be like the code roasts that ArjanCodes does

[@aflous]

​@@murphygreen8484I am an experienced python dev and really like code roasting/refactoring. I've always wanted to start a KZbin channel just to do that. Would you like me to start with yours?

[@withjk7]

please do one video on how to dind difference between instance and library vs package vs module

[@luffymonkey6967]

great coverage of enums, thank you!

[@CrateSauce]

Hey man, this video is great! I cant stop hearing you talk about Colas tho lol. Color is pronounced CUH-ler in the US and CUH-luh in the UK Thanks for the tutorial!

[@michaelhoffmann2891]

I find I use StrEnum with auto() somewhat frequently, though its usefulness some would debate. It's nice to have one clear place to replace a string, rather than having trust my IDE to do a find/replace exactly where I want it.

[@Indently]

I just learned about IntEnum & StrEnum, will have a video out on that soon :)

[@KumR]

Thank you for finding us this info...However, Is enum really essential ? I am not able to comprehend why would it be needed ? Just for cleaner looking code ?

[@vegameta]

а для чего делать наследование от Enum для строковых значений? для таких случаев имеется StrEnum

[@sergiuszkot8116]

I don't understand what have you said but I am agree with you that StrEnum should be used there :)

[@vanka_feelgood3000]

Also IntEnum when you need integers

[@_a_x_s_]

You forget the IntEnum which makes it quite useful to be stored as an integer constant directly into the database.

[@kadircalloglu2848]

and also you can use bitwise

[@josemanuelfernandez4999]

Awesome!!!!

[@user-fp8zc3mx3e]

Nice

[@marionowera5602]

I think you shouldn't use str as type hint to enum members?

[@danielcrompton7818]

I’m so glad python added match case

[@GameGame-rp4xc]

I was watching this video and thinking kinda: "is it really python? It doesnt have match statement when i started to learn it and even after 3 years using it - it is a first time i meet usage of match

[@akashahmad4779]

Greate

[@ppgiga]

I literally looked this up yesterday...

[@Observer552]

Is boolean actually an Enum with 2 constants?

[@harcos0608]

No

[@DrDeuteron]

| is neither union nor addition, it’s bitwise or.

[@payton6_]

For those watching: please don’t use f-strings if you aren’t going to use the functionality of f-strings. Readability comes in to play here due to intent

[@vicentcaselles4807]

What's the difference between using flags and sets?

[@a-jjjjjjj]

They are conceptually very similar. Flags define the "universe" of the set, allowing certain operations like complements while also restricting what they can contain. Flags are also immutable and cannot be nested, unlike regular Python sets.

[@urknidoj422]

Using flags allows you to store multiple states in a single integer, which makes it more efficient to save and query in a database, compared to using sets.

9:02 you mistake blue with black (wrote black twice)
