bjdixon / Beautiful-Idiomatic-Python
Last active August 29, 2015 13:58
Beautiful, Idiomatic Python or Don't do this, do this - Raymond Hettinger presentation (pycon 2013)
Replace traditional index manipulation with Python’s core looping idioms.
Learn advanced techniques with for-else clauses and the two argument form of iter().
Clarify function calls with keyword arguments.
Tuple packing and unpacking
Don’t under‐estimate the advantages of updating state variables at the same time. It eliminates an entire class of errors due to out­of-order updates. It allows high level thinking: “chunking”.
Decorators and Context Managers
Helps separate business logic from administrative logic. Clean, beautiful tools for factoring code and improving code reuse. Good naming is essential.
