Pythonic list/tuple/dict layout?
Hi,
There is more than one way to write a list/tuple/dict in Python,
and actually different styles are used in standard library.
As a hobgoblin of little minds, I rather like to know which style is
considered Pythonic
in the community.
I collected common layout from existing code and pasted them below.
My vote would go to d1. How about yours?
If there is consensus on this, that might be worth being included in PEP 8.
Thanks,
d1 = {
0: ham,
1: jam,
2: spam,
3: alot,
4: knights,
5: who,
6: say,
7: ni,
8: dead,
9: parrot,
}

0: ham,
1: jam,
2: spam,
3: alot,

2: spam,

These are the only two that follow PEP 8; the others don't have
four-space indent levels.
I actually use this style:
foo = {
0: 'spam',
1: 'eggs',
2: 'beans',
}
because that makes it clear that *all* the indented lines are a
continuation of the same statement, just like a suite of statements
are all uniformly indented under (e.g.) a function definition.
It seems that the author of the Python editing mode in Emacs agrees
with me too (the style, at least, if not the reasoning), which makes
my programming life easier.

I worried to be told
'you can make it in a line like {ham: jam, spam: alot}'
;)

four-space indent levels.
In those examples, the following sentence in PEP 8 would be applied.
Make sure to indent the continued line appropriately.

Yes, it does, but people around me tend to prefer d1 style to that one.
One purpose of this silly thread is to figure out which is most popular one...

It seems that I use both d1 and d4, though in both cases I omit the
trailing commas. I use d1 when each item is on a separate line, and d4
when I'm packing them onto multiple lines.
e.g.,
op = XT.make_optparse \
([('E', 'error',
{'action': 'store_const', 'dest': 'type', 'const': 'error',
'help': Mark the window as reporting an error.}),
## ...
('t', 'title',
{'dest': 'title',
'help': Set the window's title string.})],
version = VERSION,
usage = '%prog [-EIQWm] [-t TITLE] [-d HEADLINE] '
'MESSAGE [BUTTONS...]')
and
service_info = [('watch', T.VERSION, {
'adopted': (0, 0, '', cmd_adopted),
'kick': (1, 1, 'PEER', cmd_kick)
})]
In this latter case, were I defining multiple services, I'd indent it
differently:
service_info = [
('watch', T.VERSION, {
'adopted': (0, 0, '', cmd_adopted),
'kick': (1, 1, 'PEER', cmd_kick)
}),
##...
]
