Zen of Python
In the video, we covered the Zen of Python written by Tim Peters, which lists 19 idioms that serve as guiding principles for any Pythonista. Python has hundreds of Python Enhancement Proposals, commonly referred to as PEPs. The Zen of Python is one of these PEPs and is documented as PEP20.
