This post represents my attempt to convince you that sigils are a powerful tool for writing clear, expressive code. No, strike that, I’ll go further – this post is my argument that sigils are a powerful tool for clear communication in general; sigils being useful for programming is just an application of the more general rule.

The Advent of Code is an annual set of coding puzzles. I find today’s puzzle interesting because it’s a good example of how sometimes better memory management can make a real difference in performance.

This is the second in a series of posts I intend to write about how to build, deploy, and manage Python applications in as boring a way as possible.
