Hey I was hoping to get your opinions on a sort of minor stylistic point. These two snippets of code are functionally identical. Which would you use and why? The first one is easier [for me anyway] to read and understand, but slightly less efficient, while the second is [marginally] harder to follow but more efficient.
## First snippet if self.higher is self.lower is None: return if self.lower is None: return self.higher if self.higher is None: return self.lower ## Second snippet if self.higher is None: if self.lower is None: return return self.lower if self.lower is None: return self.higher What do you think? (One minor point: in the first snippet, the "is None" in the first line is superfluous in the context in which it will be used, the only time "self.lower is self.higher" will be true is when they are both None.) -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
