PEP 498 is only the latest PEP where part of the concern is fear that it may encourage certain types of bad code.
Would it be reasonable to ask PEPs to start including a section on any recommended changes to PEP8? (e.g., "If an embedded expression doesn't fit on a single line, factor it out to a named variable.") I realize that there will be times when best practices (or common mistakes) aren't obvious in advance, but I'm a bit uncomfortable with "PEP 8 will probably grow advice"... if we expect to need such advice, then we should probably include it from the start. (PEP 8 is, after all, only advice.) -jJ _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
