Zen of python

  • Beautiful is better than ugly.

  • Explicit is better than implicit.

  • Simple is better than complex.

  • The Complex is better than complicated.

  • Flat is better than nested.

  • Sparse is better than dense.

  • Code Readability counts.

  • Special cases aren’t special enough to break the rules.

  • Although practicality beats purity.

  • Errors should never pass silently.

  • Unless explicitly silenced.

  • In the face of ambiguity, refuse the temptation to guess.

  • There should be one– and preferably only one –obvious way to do it.

  • Although that way may not be obvious at first unless you’re Dutch.

  • Now is better than never.

  • Although never is often better than right now.

  • If the implementation is hard to explain, it’s a bad idea.

  • If the implementation is easy to explain, it may be a good idea.

  • Namespaces are one honking great idea – let’s do more of those!
