Re: Coding Standards
[EMAIL PROTECTED] a écrit : 'Good code' is code that works, is bug free, and is readable and maintainable. Standards need to be followed for coding. Read more... http://brsx.co.uk/SWtesting/FAQs/FAQs012.asp You misstyped your URL and referenced a C++ related document, for Python its here: http://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0008/ ;-) -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
Re: Coding standards without control?
Python makes coding standards obsolete;) But Python has the advantage, that your coding standards can concentrate on the important things and skip most of the formatting rules, that are often part of other languages coding standards. Better to say, almost obsolete, i guess :D -- Soni Bergraj http://www.YouJoy.org/ -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

If you have a team of, say, 50 programmers, everyone following his own mind-to-ascii-mapping, you are very soon in a situation, where code is completely unmaintainable. But Python has the advantage, that your coding standards can concentrate on the important things and skip most of the formatting rules, that are often part of other languages coding standards. To the control part: this is where Python comes in for general coding standards. Many rules of coding standards can be tested automatically and Python is a good choice for text processing and checking source code against the rules of a coding standard. I wrote a Python package for a subset of our coding standards and that is a very useful tool to check some 100k files. Regards Stephan -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

Are there any well defined guidelines established? http://www.python.org/peps/pep-0008.html and you may also be interested by a tool such as pylint[1] which help to enforce coding standards on your code base. Most of the styles suggested in pep 8 are checked by pylint, using its default configuration.

Are there any well defined guidelines established? Besides PEP8, there is also the library code itself. When reading that though, keep in mind that different modules were written by different people at different times. Some were written before PEP8.
