#### `Union` oder `Optional` verwenden?

Wenn Sie eine Python-Version unterhalb 3.10 verwenden, hier ist mein sehr **subjektiver** Standpunkt dazu:

* 🚨 Vermeiden Sie `Optional[SomeType]`
* Stattdessen ✨ **verwenden Sie `Union[SomeType, None]`** ✨.

    public boolean isSelectedVersionKnown() throws OverConstrainedVersionException {
        return versionRange.isSelectedVersionKnown(this);
    }

    @Override
    public void setOptional(boolean optional) {
        this.optional = optional;
    }

```Python hl_lines="1  4"
{!../../docs_src/python_types/tutorial009.py!}
```

O uso de `Optional[str]` em vez de apenas `str` permitirá que o editor o ajude a detectar erros, onde você pode estar assumindo que um valor é sempre um `str`, quando na verdade também pode ser `None`.

#### Uso de `Union` u `Optional`

Si estás usando una versión de Python inferior a 3.10, aquí tienes un consejo desde mi punto de vista muy **subjetivo**:

* 🚨 Evita usar `Optional[SomeType]`
* En su lugar ✨ **usa `Union[SomeType, None]`** ✨.

#### Gebruik van `Union` of `Optional`

Als je een Python versie lager dan 3.10 gebruikt, is dit een tip vanuit mijn **subjectieve** standpunt:

* 🚨 Vermijd het gebruik van `Optional[EenType]`.
* Gebruik in plaats daarvan **`Union[EenType, None]`** ✨.
