python shell for character codes

In Python’s land, we find character codes,
Numerical representations of characters untold,
Encoding and decoding, essential they are,
For text to display, near and far.

In this Python session, we explore character codes and how they are used in Python programming. We learn that character codes are numerical representations of characters in a computer’s memory, and they are essential for encoding and decoding text. We see an example of how to use character codes to print special characters in Python, and we also learn about the importance of encoding and decoding text using character codes to ensure that text is properly displayed and understood by different systems. Additionally, we discover that there are different character encoding standards such as ASCII, Unicode, and UTF-8, and we learn how to handle edge cases when working with character codes to avoid unexpected behavior in our programs.
