The code is read much more often than it is written. The PEP8 guidelines are intended to improve the readability of code. We will take a look at web frameworks source code readability (bottle, cherrypy, circuits, django, flask, pyramid, tornado, web.py, web2py and wheezy.web):
http://mindref.blogspot.com/2012/10/python-web-pep8-consistency.html The ratio between a web framework total python source lines to PEP8 errors found represents PEP8 error rate in respectful framework. Readability counts, no doubt, but readability consistency is important, it is equally important to know when to be inconsistent. The report makes excuse for the following: E501 line too long (> 79 characters) E231 missing whitespace after ',:' W291 trailing whitespace W293 blank line contains whitespace Comments or suggestions are welcome.
