There are certain situations when we have the mp4 file but we only need the audio from it. We struggle enough to get the same audio file, but we fail and unfortunately, we decide to choose the other music file. This problem is solved with the python library “moviepy”, as we can extract the audio from the video files through this.

6. URL Shortener

Dealing with long URLs is a hectic task when you have to regularly work with them. There comes the idea of URL Shorteners(such as bit.ly and tinyurl). These services shorten the URL to below 50 characters. We can create our own URL shortener with the help of the python library “pyshorteners”.

One of the most important factors for dealing with content writing is Plagiarism. It’s not even possible to check the files manually when they are in bundles. There comes the need for the Plagiarism detector tool. We can also create our own plagiarism detector with the help of the  python library “difflib”. It can be used to check similarities between two or more files on a device.
