To be a good disciple of PEP 8, follow it to completion. That includes the section directly after the introduction <URL:https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0008/#a-foolish-consistency-is-the-hobgoblin-of-little-minds>. If a tool is rigidly enforcing some rules of PEP 8, but failing to let you follow that section? That tool is foolish and needs to be ignored. Follow PEP 8, and use your judgement. -- \ “An expert is a man who has made all the mistakes which can be | `\ made in a very narrow field.” —Niels Bohr | _o__) | Ben Finney _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
