The handsome ':' terminator of if/elif/if statements allows us to omit a newline, conserving vertical space. This improves the readability of certain constructs.if x: print(x) elif y: print(y) else: print()
Analogously, x+=1;y=f(x);return We don't have to eliminate ':'s. Emile -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
