Don't worry if you never see that method before, this extension provided a lot of code examples for that.

This extensions not only provide snippets but also is helpful for learning python programming language.

all python built-in snippets and with at least one example => for each method
For example if you want to use string replace method type .replace
But if you don't know how to use replace method then type str find str-replace=>
Contains a lot of other code snippets (like if:else, for, while, while:else, try:catch, fileIO and oop class snippets examples (polymorphism, encapsulation, inheritance)

Snippets | Descriptions (from 2018, new one is at top)

There are string/list/tuple/set/dict datatype snippet	E.g. Type Out
To get `__main__` type `def` or `function` or `main-`	`main-`
To see built-in method example type `apply-` scroll down	`apply-`
Tips: to see specific method type example `name=`	`count=`

 species = 'bird'

# instance attribute
 def __init__(self, name, age):
 self.name = name
 self.age = age

# instantiate the Parrot class
blu = Parrot('Blu', 10)
woo = Parrot('woo', 15)

# access the class attributes
print(f'Blu is a {blu.__class__.species}')
print(f'Woo is also a {woo.__class__.species}')
# access the instance attributes
print(f'{blu.name} is {blu.age} years old')
