    I didn't really read the books, I just listened on Audible, so I have a tendency to miss details.

    Yeah the green from the rust and since they are called "smokers" and they burn metals... the image of cartoon characters being so mad smoke comes out of their ears appeared in my mind's eye whenever the books mentioned copper burning.

    Disclaimer: I would only call my skill level as intermediate and would yield to any more senior developer here.

    It's not a hard and fast rule, but you can usually write it without the else and in fewer lines.

    So take for a very contrived example a function that needs to return a non boolean value for a boolean test. A use case could be if you need to figure out a string argument for another function, such as you need to determine if you need to keep the "first" or "last" duplicate in a dataframe (I'm thinking about pandas's df.drop_dupliactes method).

    Continuing with the drop_duplicate thing let's say we have a dataframe we need to de-duplicate but for some reason if the overall length of the dataframe is even, we need to keep the first duplicate and if the dataframe length is odd we keep the last. I don't know why we would, but that was a very particular request from the customer and we need the money to buy more Warhammer figurines.

    import pandas as pd
    
    # With else statement
    def foo(x: int) -> str:
        if x%2>0:
            return "last"
        else:
            return "first"
    
    # No else statement, shorter.
    def foo(x: int) -> str:
        if x%2>0:
            return "last"
        return "first"
    
    
    #import dataframe, deduplicate
    df = pd.read_csv("c:\\path\\to\\data.csv")
    dedup = df.drop_duplicates(keep=foo(len(df))
    
    

    Here's an essay that goes into more detail

    For following good practices, I highly recommend using a linter like ruff. I've learned a lot from it's explanations on why my code is bad.

    Also I have tried to avoid using else statements.

    I had used one as the BBEG in a campaign I ran once. It was strictly for a their tier 4 climax and they had multiple side quests to help get some advantages like overcoming the spell resistance or temporarily stoping the health Regen. However, I also gave the Terrasque a ranged attack, and a few extra abilities so the players couldn't metagame and fly and kite.

    And they had to figure out a way to trap the monster in a canyon.

    Even still I dropped every PC to 0 health at least once in that encounter before they won. A real nail bitter.

    It was one of the top five boss fights I ever was a part of on either side of the screen.

    Additionally to what the other poster said, the actors would wear masks (like the comedy/tragedy masks you see decorating drama classrooms) that helped communicate to the cheap seats what emotions the actors were dealing as well as helping amplify the voice.

    Additionally there would be a group of actors called the chorus who would occasionally chant lines together (and loudly) that would help summarize what was going on.
