Hi Sander, PEP 8, the "Style Guide for Python Code" http://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0008/ is pretty clear that the shorter version is preferable:
if s: if n: if b: if not b: and so on... Cheers, Vern Sander Sweers wrote:
Hi Tutors, I am going through someone's python script and I am seeing a lot of the following boolean checks. if not s == "" if not n == 0 if b == True if not b == True etc.. All of these can be written without the == notation like "if n", "if s" etc. Now in this case where it is only used as boolean checks which would be the most pythonic way if writing these checks?
