Yes. It's like writing instructions for how to make a cup of tea. You might want to put in one spoon of sugar, someone else might prefer two. On the instructions, you simply write "Add sugar to taste", and that's what this is drawing analogy with. The PEP, as then written, would happily accept all of these: x = y*2+z*3 x = y*2 + z*3 x = y * 2 + z * 3 but would advise against: x =y*2 + z* 3 ChrisA _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
