What I said: "Python, for good or ill, is an opinionated language regarding indentation and statements."
And then Greg refuted something I never said: > So if Python is opinionated about line lengths, it's rather > selectively opinionated. The Python language isn't opinionated about line lengths, except as a coding standard. So whatever point you think you are making about line lengths, it is not refuting anything I have said. PEP 8 isn't mandatory, but lots of people follow it. Even those who don't still try to avoid writing 800-column lines. Greg, I trust that you will agree that even if the interpreter allows them, long one-liners with semicolons are not considered Pythonic. -- Steve _______________________________________________ Python-ideas mailing list -- python-ideas@python.org To unsubscribe send an email to python-ideas-le...@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman3/lists/python-ideas.python.org/ Message archived at https://mail.python.org/archives/list/python-ideas@python.org/message/SKBNGI4TDMW6F7X4QMMA46XANGLHC4FH/ Code of Conduct: http://python.org/psf/codeofconduct/
