Have you had a look at PEP 8 yet? It covers most of the Python stylistic conventions, particularly if you intend to contribute to Python and its standard libraries.

That was it! What system are you using that doesn't already have UTF-8 as the default encoding? -- Steve ___ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
[Tutor] [Promotion] Book for Data Science Aspirants
Hello Python people, Two years ago, my profession changed, I had to do data science work. When I started it, I (though I knew Python) found it to be extremely difficult and I had these doubts: What to learn? Where to learn? Am I doing things right? Where can I find a person who would guide me in the right path? Were the questions that arose in my mind. I had no proper guide and it was pain. So I wrote this book "How To Become A Data Scientist" https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07FYVTNX7 , a guide for those who would like to become Data Scientist. I have crystallized two years of my struggle and answers to it in this book. I hope this book would help you. - Karthikeyan A K ___ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
