how to type with python code example

Example 1: how to simulate a key press in python

# in command prompt, type "pip install pynput" to install pynput.
from pynput.keyboard import Key, Controller

keyboard = Controller()
key = "a"

keyboard.press(key)
keyboard.release(key)

Example 2: python type on keyboard

pip install keyboard

import keyboard

keyboard.press_and_release('shift+s, space')

keyboard.write('The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog.')

keyboard.add_hotkey('ctrl+shift+a', print, args=('triggered', 'hotkey'))

# Press PAGE UP then PAGE DOWN to type "foobar".
keyboard.add_hotkey('page up, page down', lambda: keyboard.write('foobar'))

# Blocks until you press esc.
keyboard.wait('esc')

# Record events until 'esc' is pressed.
recorded = keyboard.record(until='esc')
# Then replay back at three times the speed.
keyboard.play(recorded, speed_factor=3)

# Type @@ then press space to replace with abbreviation.
keyboard.add_abbreviation('@@', '[email protected]')

# Block forever, like `while True`.
keyboard.wait()

Example 3: type python

#This is able to tell the user what the type of an object is
string_example = "string"
int_example = 1
float_example = 1.1
type_of_string = type(string_example)
#<class 'str'>
type_of_int = type(int_example)
#<class 'int'>
type_of_float = type(float_example)
#<class 'float'>

Example 4: python type hint list

# For collections, the name of the type is capitalized, and the
# name of the type inside the collection is in brackets
x: List[int] = [1]
x: Set[int] = {6, 7}
  
# For simple built-in types, just use the name of the type
x: int = 1
x: float = 1.0
x: bool = True
x: str = "test"
x: bytes = b"test"

Example 5: type declaration python

def greeting(name: str) -> str:
    return 'Hello ' + name

Example 6: type in python

numbers_list = [1, 2]
print(type(numbers_list))

numbers_dict = {1: 'one', 2: 'two'}
print(type(numbers_dict))

class Foo:
    a = 0

foo = Foo()
print(type(foo))

                       Output

<class 'dict'>
<class 'Foo'>
<class '__main__.Foo'>
