python should i add type hints for everyhting code example
Example 1: 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 2: python optional type annotation
from custom_module import SomeClass
from typing import Optional
class SubClass:
a_reference: Optional[SomeClass] # Provides info that a_reference may be 'None'.
def __init__(self):
self.a_reference = None
