Explanation and details
The provided Python program is quite simple and there isn't much room for optimization in terms of performance because it primarily consists of a class definition and a single method that returns a static string. This operation is already highly efficient.
However, if you want to ensure the method is executed as quickly as possible, you can make slight improvements for readability or maintainability, not so much for performance. Here is a slightly cleaned-up version.
In this version, I have added the
@staticmethod
decorator since the method does not depend on the instance (orself
). This provides a hint to both the developer and some IDEs or code analysis tools thatget_tree_icon
does not rely on instance-specific data. Note that in the context of this very simple example, it will not make a noticeable difference in performance.Other than that, the method is already optimal in terms of speed and memory usage.
