Build w/ Python 4: Python Code Refactoring (Modular python functions)

How do we go from a long all-encompassing monolithic python function to small, testable, modular python functions? That's what this episode is about. We explore the mental models required to write modular python functions, making them more maintainable, testable and predictable. If you want to follow along the full series, fork the code from the repo or go to the full playlist where we build a python package for a terminal-based productivity tool.

Breaking up one big function into several smaller functions for unit testing!
