In this video, I will demonstrate checking color contrast on your web pages using the WAVE browser extension.

WAVE is a web accessibility evaluation tool developed by WebAIM.org. It provides visual feedback about the accessibility of your web content by injecting icons and indicators into your page. No automated tool can tell you if your page is accessible, but WAVE facilitates human evaluation and educates about accessibility issues. All analysis is done entirely within the Chrome browser allowing secure valuation of intranet, local, password protected, and other sensitive web pages.

For Chrome-Based Web Browsers

If you use a Google Chrome-based browser (Google Chrome, Microsoft Edge, or Brave), please consider installing the WAVE Extension.

For the Firefox Web Browser

If you are using the Firefox browser, you can install the extension from this link:

For Other Web Browsers

There is not currently an extension for Apple Safari or other browsers at this time 🙁.

2. Determine which elements in a list are numbers
3. Calling a function from within a list comprehension
4. Combining two lists
5. Combining multiple lists

Here are the files demoed in the video https://github.com/belgort-clark/python-list-comprehension-video-demos

In this video, I will introduce you to the Python Inflect library. The library correctly generates plurals, singular nouns, ordinals, and indefinite articles and can convert numbers to words. You will need to first install the library with pip covered in the video. Here’s a link to the library on PyPI https://pypi.org/project/inflect/

For those wondering why I have to look at a screen so closely with my glasses, I demonstrated why I have to do so. Give it a watch, and this great mystery of “The Elgort” will be explained.

A demonstration of software or hardware specifically meant to work only at a trade show or conference and nowhere else.
