Whether you're a seasoned developer or an enthusiastic beginner eager to expand your skill set, these posts will offer valuable insights. We'll be delving into complex concepts, demonstrating the power and flexibility of Python

1. SpeedTest with Python

# pip install pyspeedtest

#method 1
import speedtest

speedTest = speedtest.Speedtest()
print(speedTest.get_best_server())

#Check download speed
print(speedTest.download())

#Check upload speed
print(speedTest.upload())

# Method 2
import pyspeedtest
st = pyspeedtest.SpeedTest()
st.ping()
st.download()
st.upload()

2. Search on Google

from googlesearch import search

query = "Medium.com"
for url in search(query):
    print(url)

3. Make Web Bot

# pip install selenium

import time
from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.common.keys import Keys

bot = webdriver.Chrome("chromedriver.exe")
bot.get('[http://www.google.com'](http://www.google.com'))

search = bot.find_element_by_name('q')
search.send_keys("@codedev101")
search.send_keys(Keys.RETURN)
time.sleep(5)
bot.quit()

4. Fetch Song Lyrics

# pip install lyricsgenius

import lyricsgenius

api_key = "xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx"

genius = lyricsgenius.Genius(api_key)
artist = genius.search_artist("Pop Smoke", max_songs=5,sort="title")
song = artist.song("100k On a Coupe")

print(song.lyrics)

5. Get Exif Data of Photos

# Method 1
# pip install pillow
import PIL.Image
import PIL.ExifTags

img = PIL.Image.open("Img.jpg")
exif_data =
{
    PIL.ExifTags.TAGS[i]: j
    for i, j in img._getexif().items()
    if i in PIL.ExifTags.TAGS
}
print(exif_data)

# Method 2
# pip install ExifRead
import exifread

filename = open(path_name, 'rb')

tags = exifread.process_file(filename)
print(tags)

6. OCR Text from Image

# pip install pytesseract

import pytesseract
from PIL import Image

pytesseract.pytesseract.tesseract_cmd = r'C:\Program Files\Tesseract-OCR\tesseract.exe'

t=Image.open("img.png")
text = pytesseract.image_to_string(t, config='')

print(text)

7. Convert Photo into Cartonize

# pip install opencv-python

import cv2

img = cv2.imread('img.jpg')
grayimg = cv2.cvtColor(img, cv2.COLOR_BGR2GRAY)
grayimg  = cv2.medianBlur(grayimg, 5)

edges = cv2.Laplacian(grayimg , cv2.CV_8U, ksize=5)
r,mask =cv2.threshold(edges,100,255,cv2.THRESH_BINARY_INV)

img2 = cv2.bitwise_and(img, img, mask=mask)
img2 = cv2.medianBlur(img2, 5)

cv2.imwrite("cartooned.jpg", mask)

8. Empty Recycle Bin

# pip install winshell

import winshell
try:
    winshell.recycle_bin().empty(confirm=False, /show_progress=False, sound=True)
    print("Recycle bin is emptied Now")
except:
    print("Recycle bin already empty")

9. Python Image Enhancement

# pip install pillow

from PIL import Image,ImageFilter
from PIL import ImageEnhance

im = Image.open('img.jpg')

# Choose your filter
# add Hastag at start if you don't want to any filter below

en = ImageEnhance.Color(im)
en = ImageEnhance.Contrast(im)
en = ImageEnhance.Brightness(im)
en = ImageEnhance.Sharpness(im)

# result
en.enhance(1.5).show("enhanced")

10. Get Window Version

# Window Version

import wmi
data = wmi.WMI()
for os_name in data.Win32_OperatingSystem():
  print(os_name.Caption) # Microsoft Windows 11 Home
