I believe this falls under coding style and is not something we should actively discourage. It's an idiom that many programming languages share with Python. You may also want to look at this PEP for a longer discussion on the topic: https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-3126/ Even pylint rejected a request to have a rule added for this: https://github.com/PyCQA/pylint/issues/1589 FWIW: I use implicit concats a lot and find them very useful for e.g. writing long SQL queries or longer string literals at indented levels where the triple quote approach doesn't work well. -- Marc-Andre Lemburg eGenix.com Professional Python Services directly from the Experts (#1, Mar 14 2018) >>> Python Projects, Coaching and Consulting ... http://www.egenix.com/ >>> Python Database Interfaces ... http://products.egenix.com/ >>> Plone/Zope Database Interfaces ... http://zope.egenix.com/ ________________________________________________________________________ ::: We implement business ideas - efficiently in both time and costs ::: eGenix.com Software, Skills and Services GmbH Pastor-Loeh-Str.48 D-40764 Langenfeld, Germany.
