"And quite frankly, I stumble upon badly written Python way more often than C."

I'm curious, which public codebases would you consider to be examples of well written Python?

The often cited requests library, flask and Django. Some counter examples are high profile projects such as IPython and Matplotlib.

Thanks. I'll spend some time with Requests over the weekend. It looks like the person who maintains that library is also behind this http://docs.python-guide.org/en/latest/#writing-great-code
