There are three components:
1 From the Greek: "con" meaning 'against' or 'unable'.
2 From tech-jargon (and the Australian habit of shortening every word in
the English language): "fuzz" is the contraction of two highly-technical
terms, famously applied in intro courses and by naive job-interviewers.
3 From English: the suffix "ed" meaning past tense.
Thus, (smirking!) "confuzzed" is the psychological term for people who
have never been able to bend their minds around the "fizz-buzz" coding
challenge.

Alternately, I follow a practice called "TDD" (Test-Driven Development),
whereby each large problem is broken-down into subroutines, and then
each subroutine is individually created and tested. Further tests will
ensure that as the smaller-units are combined, they work-together

The original code appeared to work, but one small part (ie do these

When testing the integrity of some collection of data, why use assert

on a similar container format at the moment, where the length of

So, there are many reasons why "bytes" is a 'good' measure of length -

Important to differences.
Python offers mutable (can be changed) and immutable (can't) objects
(remember: 'everything is an object'):

Perhaps you have different approaches depending upon the number of
objects in the 'list' and the proximity of column-79, or by nature of
the application?

Whereas the other formats cannot, it would be very easy to turn an (a)
type of list into a dataclass!

Why use a function instead of operating in-line?

Thus, the answer to your question is a matter of style, and thus the
understanding of those who might read the code.
FWIW: I leave them out because it is easier on my eyes whilst scanning
the line of code.

Here's another: "YAGNI" (You Aren't Going to Need It) - don't try to
make a simple program into the be-all-and-end-all just in-case some

database-output. That said, designing for 'independence' will facilitate
such extensions, should they (ever) be required.

stats or logging you may deem appropriate). A third state would be 'in
process'. Now, at start-up, the application can quickly check to see if
there is any file in that state...
