The brackets mean that the lines are automatically treated as
continuous, without the need for the ugly '\' continuation character.

If you want indented and pretty is important to you:
from textwrap import dedent as D
message = D(\
This is line1.

When necessary to skip first line _and_ indentation:

I just have a basic style question here. Suppose you have the program:
def foo1():
do something
def foo2()
do something else
Assume that you want to call these functions at execution. Is it more
proper to call them directly like:
foo1()
foo2()
or in an if __name__ == __main__
that the script runs its main functions when called as a standalone
program, but you can also import the code and do something with it
without setting off those functions.

Just curious about people's sense of style:
To delete all the elements of a list, should one do:
lst[:] = []
or
del(lst[:])
I seem to see the first form much more often in code, but
the second one seems more clearly *deleting* elements,
and less dangerously mistaken for the completely

Note that del is not a function - the parentheses are not needed, and in
fact obscure the intent.

Is there anything wrong with using something like super(type(self),
self).f() to avoid having to hardcode a type?
What happens when that method gets called by an overriding method in a
derived class?
For example:
class A(object):
def f(self):
As Tom said, using super(type(self), self) will fail when your class
gets subclassed. Otherwise we wouldn't have needed that kind of syntax
in the first place.
