| May I suggest this book specifically tailored for python best practices? https://jeffknupp.com/writing-idiomatic-python-ebook/ Its a wonderful read. Will really unleash the pythonista inside of all us! If you really want to go deeper, I suggest these as well: https://goo.gl/CY6zPu
https://goo.gl/UbMrTb Those shortened links take you to amazon (not affiliated in any way, FYI, just though the length of the URLs was obnoxious) Those are the definitive python programming books I came up with anyway. While we are at, I have to say once I learned to really code Pythonically I find that I can apply the PEP8 standards to almost any language. Admittedly, I, like John Siracusa, am a top level language debutante and don't live in C or C++ production code (I sometimes use objc but swift is...easier :). I remember learning C, and thanks to arduino I certainly using some varient of C/c++ there more heavily, but my coding style follows more or less the pythonic standard (with PEP8 being the backbone of that). food for thought, people of hacker news! |
Just FYI: Hacker News already shortens links, no need to pass them through a 3rd party service. I personally prefer seeing a readable domain name before clicking (as I'm sure many others do as well).
