Some people like the following layout
if long_function_name(a) == long_function_name(b) and \
long_function_name(c) == long_function_name(d) and \
long_function_name(e) == long_function_name(f):
# do something if all three equalities hold
I prefer to use parens for that:
if ( long_function_name(a) == long_function_name(b) and
long_function_name(c) == long_function_name(d) and
long_function_name(e) == long_function_name(f) ):
# do something if all three equalities hold
That increases the indent and avoids the pesky \ chars.
But it adds a hard-to-spot closing paren at the end :-(
