The `__hello__` module is used as an example for the Freeze module that comes with Python. In Freeze's documentation it steps you through freezing the script. So technically I don't think it can be called an Easter egg since there is actually a purpose for it. The reason it switched to include `main()` is because we should all be including the `main()` function that is called when __name__ is equal to `__main__`. Best practice you know. 😊 Concerning the Monty Python references, the editor that comes with Python is called Idle, named after the Monte Python great Eric Idle. At my work I wrote a Python script to handle generating Excel billing reports. When asked what it'll be called, I jokingly said "Cleese". It stuck. Every once in a while now, someone reading the documentation will ask if I wrote it in Python. Anyone that gets the reference is automatically my friend. I love these Easter egg videos. I end up going down a rabbit whole looking at what happened. Freeze Utility really got me this weekend. 🐍 Great video!
Anyone know if there is some documentation about which flavours of programming has been used, (which of course should state that “I don’t know what _flavor_ it is, it’s bloody seebird flavour”)
I think Monty python's spam sketch is why those spam messages are called spam .
Was also gonna comment this! Yeah it's 100% a reference to that sketch

Great video!
there actually is python with braces now!
Bython 😊
Indeed yeah! Still yet to try it, need to get round to it.
bython seems interesting. Braces are nice
nights of nigh? oh dear.
the Knights who say “Nih”! Before they stop saying “Nih” and change their name to the Knights who say “ekki ekki ekki t’pang” (or thereabouts)
