The Zen of Python, by Tim Peters | |
Beautiful is better than ugly. | |
Explicit is better than implicit. | |
Simple is better than complex. | |
Complex is better than complicated. | |
Flat is better than nested. | |
Sparse is better than dense. | |
Readability counts. | |
Special cases aren't special enough to break the rules. | |
Although practicality beats purity. | |
Errors should never pass silently. | |
Unless explicitly silenced. | |
In the face of ambiguity, refuse the temptation to guess. | |
There should be one-- and preferably only one --obvious way to do it. | |
Although that way may not be obvious at first unless you're Dutch. | |
Now is better than never. | |
Although never is often better than *right* now. | |
If the implementation is hard to explain, it's a bad idea. | |
If the implementation is easy to explain, it may be a good idea. | |
Namespaces are one honking great idea -- let's do more of those! |
