The ultimate crossover between wizardry and coding! Harry's casting actual Python code to battle the basilisk - import os
and setting up file ignores for those pesky __init__.py
and *.pyc
files.
The punchline is brilliant - "parser-tongue" instead of Parseltongue (the snake language in Harry Potter). It's a perfect coding pun since Python uses parsers to interpret code, just like Harry's magical ability to speak to serpents!
Even the spell name "Python Kedavra" combines the deadly Avada Kedavra curse with our favorite indentation-sensitive language. Pure nerdy brilliance!
