In this video, I delved into the Python source code to unravel how the print function functions internally. By modifying the print function to include object metadata, I showcased the ease of effecting changes in a large codebase. We navigated through the codebase using Python's help function to locate the print function quickly. I demonstrated how to print object metadata alongside the object itself, shedding light on Python's garbage collection technique. This hands-on exploration underscores the accessibility of contributing to open-source projects.
