- Done. It's pretty extensive, thanks to STIX... - MGD
-coding guide (reviewed by EF)
------------------------------
-
-Mostly fine (see :ref:`coding-guide`), just a few comments.
-Also, there are a couple of typos, but I would rather just edit those
-directly in another pass (if you don't happen to find them) than
-include them as formal review notes.
-
-#. DONE - Import recommendation for ma: given that the trunk is
- requiring numpy 1.1, perhaps we should be consistent and
- recommend the form::
-
- import numpy.ma as ma
-
- for use in the trunk.
- A note about the difference between the two forms and the
- history can stay in place, and the alternative form would
- still be required for the maintenance branch, I presume.
-
-#. This is peripheral, but regarding the example::
-
- mpl.rcParams['xtick.major.pad'] = 6
-
- At least at the application level, I think we should move
- towards using validation routinely when setting rcParams,
- to reduce a source of hard-to-find bugs. I don't know to
- what extent Darren's traits-based system takes care of
- this, but if it does, that is a big point in its favor.
- There are alternatives (e.g. building validation into the
- rc() function and using that instead of setting the
- dictionary entries directly), if necessary.
-
- Darren notes:
-
- Validation is actually built into RcParams. This was done
- just prior to development of the traited config, validation is done using
- the mechanisms developed in rcsetup. For example::
-
- >>> rcParams['a.b']=1
-

- KeyError Traceback (most recent call

- 555 except KeyError:
- 556 raise KeyError('%s is not a valid rc parameter.\
- --> 557 See rcParams.keys() for a list of valid parameters.'%key)

return False

- ---> 58 raise ValueError('Could not convert "%s" to boolean' % b)

-
- ValueError: Could not convert "" to boolean

-
-
-#. DONE - You give the example::
-
- import matplotlib.cbook as cbook
-
- Should there also be a list of the standard variants like
- ``mtransforms``? (And, again peripherally, I would
- shorten that one to ``mtrans``.)
-
-#. DONE - The treatment of whitespace is split into two parts
- separated by paragraphs on docstrings and line length;
- this can be consolidated. It might be worth mentioning
- the ``reindent.py`` and ``tabnanny.py`` utilities here.
-
-#. DONE - (removed first person usage) - Minor question of literary
- style: should use of the first person be avoided in most places?
- It is used, for example, in the discussion of the automatic kwarg
- doc generation. I don't mind leaving the first person in, with the
- general understanding that it means you.
-
-#. DONE - Licenses: you might want to add a link to your
- explanation of your BSD choice. Peripheral question: is
- there any problem with basemap's inclusion of
- sub-packages with the gamut of licenses, GPL to MIT?
