An AHA Popped Up Because I Encountered a Problem


 I've gotten into a habit of decorating my console output strings with colors, like highlighting some fragments in Yellow, Red or whatever and then switching back to White. Each escape code sequence is relatively long. And, the pointer to the escape code has to be encased in curly brackets ({code}). Typing all that out becomes a pain.

Hey, I'm just a beginner/noob Python coder; still not grokking much of it in my nascent and evolving cusp state, Those alleged "circular import" lock ups should happen only to them guru coding experts who are trying to be too clever by a half! Not me. Not yet. (Right?) At first my computer would just freeze up. The cursor stopped moving. I couldn't do anything but shut off the power and boot up again. I worried that PyCharm or Python 3.13.5 had permanently damaged my computer!
