What Does "Object is Not Subscriptable" Really Mean In Python?

[@Astolfinho2469]

Thank you so much for this! I'm trying to learn python and you're the best kind of teacher we can have on youtube.

haiiiiii astolfo :3

[@jinyiliu2102]

I totally agree 👍🏻

[@EdgarDarmstadtio]

you really have an obsession with type hints don't you

[@BohonChina]

The pythonic way to handle the 1st example situation is to use defaultdict, Python will generate default values for missing keys

[@dflolcool4180]

Yea more people need to use it

[@roblesman17]

what would you return on the setitem and delitem functions to set it up correctly?

[@Indently]

I would probably return -> None since they are just performing operations with no output.

[@lostyguy7602]

Could you explain how to use 'self'? like in def xyz(self): ?

[@rishiraj2548]

Good day greetings

[@zeerakkhan274]

Great Explanation of the error and how to avoid it. I was just thinking about the Use Case of creating custom subcriptable objects? 🤔

[@jimmlmao]

it does not support [doing this]

[@cegexen8191]

Are all iterables subscriptable ?

[@lucyper8921]

depends on the type, example is enumerate(), you can iterate but isn't subscriptable

[@EdgarDarmstadtio]

generators aren't
