Do not use relative names in imports. Even if the module is in the
same package, use the full package name. This helps prevent
unintentionally importing a package twice.

Exceptions are a means of breaking out of the normal flow of control
of a code block to handle errors or other exceptional conditions.
</P>
<P class="">
<SPAN class="stylepoint_section">Pros: </SPAN>
The control flow of normal operation code is not cluttered by
error-handling code. It also allows the control flow to skip multiple
frames when a certain condition occurs, e.g., returning from N
nested functions in one step instead of having to carry-through
error codes.
</P>

May cause the control flow to be confusing. Easy to miss error
cases when making library calls.

Exceptions must follow certain conditions:
<ul>

<li>Minimize the amount of code in a

body of the <code>try</code>, the more likely that an
exception will be raised by a line of code that you didn't
expect to raise an exception. In those cases,
the <code>try</code>/<code>except</code> block hides a real
error.</li>

Update C++ style guide to 3.146: - Make the messaging on DISALLOW_EVIL_CONSTRUCTORS more clear that we should not be rewriting old code but should simply prefer DISALLOW_COPY_AND_ASSIGN on new code. - s/Initializer Lists/Constructor Initializer Lists/ since people search for this based on knowing it's part of the constructor, but forget the precise name. - Allow data members in a test fixture to be private. - Loosen restrictions on globals. - Add explicit guideline for nested namespace formatting. - Strengthen the prohibition against operator overloading for operator&. - Add recommendation for "_" over "-" in file names. - Revise the "Copy Constructors" section for brevity and clarity. Emphasize preference for standard over nonstandard copy operations. - Weaken the wording at the top of the "Doing Work in Constructors" section, making it clear that Init() methods are not absolutely required for non-trivial initialization. - Fix minor typos and grammatical errors. Update Objective-C style guide to 2.14: - Add the Rule of Four for indenting parameters. Allow either of two forms for formatting methods with short first keywords. - Update the guidance on BOOL vs. bool. - Whitespace cleanup. Update Python style guide to 2.14: - Consolidate discussion of the string module, apply, map, filter, and reduce into a single section. - Make it explicit that functions and classes can be nested inside methods.

function can be defined inside a method or function. Nested functions

<SPAN class="stylepoint_section">Pros: </SPAN>
The default iterators and operators are simple and efficient.
They express the operation directly, without extra method calls.
A function that uses default operators is generic. It can be
used with any type that supports the operation.
</P>

<SPAN class="stylepoint_section">Cons: </SPAN>
You can't tell the type of objects by reading the method names
(e.g. has_key() means a dictionary). This is also an advantage.

that support them, like lists, dictionaries, and files. The
built-in types define iterator methods, too. Prefer these
methods to methods that return lists, except that you should not
mutate a container while iterating over it.

A generator function returns an iterator that yields a value each

runtime state of the generator function is suspended until the
next value is needed.

Okay to use them for one-liners. If the code inside the lambda
function is any longer than 60–80 chars, it's probably better to
define it as a regular (nested) function.

For common operations like multiplication, use the functions from the
<code>operator</code> module instead of lambda functions. For
example, prefer <code>operator.mul</code> to <code>lambda
x, y: x * y</code>.

You can specify values for variables at the end of a function's
parameter list, e.g., <code>def foo(a, b=0):</code>. If
<code>foo</code> is called with only one argument,
<code>b</code> is set to 0. If it is called with two arguments,
<code>b</code> has the value of the second argument.

Often you have a function that uses lots of default values,
but—rarely—you want to override the
defaults. Default argument values provide an easy way to do this,
without having to define lots of functions for the rare
exceptions. Also, Python does not support overloaded
methods/functions and default arguments are an easy way of
"faking" the overloading behavior.

Default arguments are evaluated once at module load
time. This may cause problems if the argument is a mutable
object such as a list or a dictionary. If the function modifies
the object (e.g., by appending an item to a list), the default
value is modified.

<SPAN class="stylepoint_section">Definition: </SPAN> A way to wrap method calls for getting and

computation is lightweight.
</P>
<P class="">
<SPAN class="stylepoint_section">Pros: </SPAN> Readability is increased by eliminating explicit
get and set method calls for simple attribute access. Allows
calculations to be lazy. Considered the Pythonic way to
maintain the interface of a class. In terms of performance,
allowing properties bypasses needing trivial accessor methods
when a direct variable access is reasonable. This also allows
accessor methods to be added in the future without breaking the
interface.

setter methods are declared, requiring one to notice they are
used for properties farther down in the code (except for readonly
properties created with the <code>@property</code> decorator - see

overloading. Can be confusing for subclasses.

Use the "implicit" false if at all possible, e.g., <code>if
foo:</code> rather than <code>if foo != []:</code>. There are a
few caveats that you should keep in mind though:
<ul>
<li>
Never use <code>==</code> or <code>!=</code> to compare
singletons like <code>None</code>. Use <code>is</code>
or <code>is not</code>.</li>
<li>Beware of writing <code>if x:</code> when you really mean
<code>if x is not None:</code>—e.g., when testing whether
a variable or argument that defaults to <code>None</code> was
set to some other value. The other value might be a value
that's false in a boolean context!</li>
<li>
Never compare a boolean variable to <code>False</code> using
<code>==</code>. Use <code>if not x:</code> instead. If
you need to distinguish <code>False</code> from
<code>None</code> then chain the expressions,
such as <code>if not x and x is not None:</code>.
</li>
<li>
For sequences (strings, lists, tuples), use the fact that
empty sequences are false, so <code>if not seq:</code> or
<code>if seq:</code> is preferable to <code>if
len(seq):</code> or <code>if not
len(seq):</code>.</li>
<li>
When handling integers, implicit false may involve more risk than
benefit (i.e., accidentally handling <code>None</code> as 0). You may
compare a value which is known to be an integer (and is not the
result of <code>len()</code>) against the integer 0.

A nested Python function can refer to variables defined in
enclosing functions, but can not assign to them. Variable
bindings are resolved using lexical scoping, that is, based on
the static program text. Any assignment to a name in a block
will cause Python to treat all references to that name as a
local variable, even if the use precedes the assignment. If a
global declaration occurs, the name is treated as a global
variable.

The most common decorators are <code>@classmethod</code> and
<code>@staticmethod</code>, for converting ordinary methods to class or
static methods. However, the decorator syntax allows for
user-defined decorators as well. Specifically, for some function
<code>my_decorator</code>, this:

While Python's built-in data types such as dictionaries appear
to have atomic operations, there are corner cases where they
aren't atomic (e.g. if <code>__hash__</code> or
<code>__eq__</code> are implemented as Python methods) and their
atomicity should not be relied upon. Neither should you rely on
atomic variable assignment (since this in turn depends on
dictionaries).

In cases of implied line continuation, you should align wrapped elements
either vertically, as per the examples in the

Surround binary operators with a single space on either side for
assignment (<code>=</code>), comparisons (<code>==, &lt;, &gt;, !=,
&lt;&gt;, &lt;=, &gt;=, in, not in, is, is not</code>), and Booleans
(<code>and, or, not</code>). Use your better judgment for the
insertion of spaces around arithmetic operators but always be
consistent about whitespace on either side of a binary operator.

<p>
A function must have a docstring, unless it meets all of the following
criteria:
<ul>
<li>not externally visible</li>
<li>very short</li>
<li>obvious</li>
</ul>
</p>
<p>
A docstring should give enough information to write a call to the function
without reading the function's code. A docstring should describe the
function's calling syntax and its semantics, not its implementation. For
tricky code, comments alongside the code are more appropriate than using
docstrings.
</p>
<p>
Certain aspects of a function should be documented in special sections,
listed below. Each section begins with a heading line, which ends with a
colon. Sections should be indented two spaces, except for the heading.
</p>
<dl>
<dt>Args:</dt>
<dd>
List each parameter by name. A description should follow the name, and
be separated by a colon and a space. If the description is too long to
fit on a single 80-character line, use a hanging indent of 2 or 4 spaces
(be consistent with the rest of the file).
<p>
The description should mention required type(s) and the meaning of
the argument.
</p>
<p>
If a function accepts *foo (variable length argument lists) and/or
**bar (arbitrary keyword arguments), they should be listed as *foo and
**bar.
</p>
</dd>
<dt>Returns: (or Yields: for generators)</dt>
<dd>
Describe the type and semantics of the return value. If the function
only returns None, this section is not required.
</dd>
<dt>Raises:</dt>
<dd>
List all exceptions that are relevant to the interface.
</dd>
</dl>

Be consistent with your choice of string quote character within a file.
Pick <code>'</code> or <code>"</code> and stick with it.
It is okay to use the other quote character on a string to avoid the
need to <code>\</code> escape within the string.
GPyLint enforces this.

Explicitly close files and sockets when done with them.

<DIV class=""><DIV class="stylepoint_body" name="Files_and_Sockets__body" id="Files_and_Sockets__body" style="display: none">
<p>
Leaving files, sockets or other file-like objects open unnecessarily
has many downsides, including:
<ul>
<li>They may consume limited system resources, such as file
descriptors. Code that deals with many such objects may exhaust
those resources unnecessarily if they're not returned to the
system promptly after use.</li>
<li>Holding files open may prevent other actions being performed on
them, such as moves or deletion.</li>
<li>Files and sockets that are shared throughout a program may
inadvertantly be read from or written to after logically being
closed. If they are actually closed, attempts to read or write
from them will throw exceptions, making the problem known
sooner.</li>
</ul>
</p>
<p>
Furthermore, while files and sockets are automatically closed when the
file object is destructed, tying the life-time of the file object to
the state of the file is poor practice, for several reasons:
<ul>
<li>There are no guarantees as to when the runtime will actually run
the file's destructor. Different Python implementations use
different memory management techniques, such as delayed Garbage
Collection, which may increase the object's lifetime arbitrarily
and indefinitely.</li>
<li>Unexpected references to the file may keep it around longer than
intended (e.g. in tracebacks of exceptions, inside globals,
etc).</li>
</ul>

Imports are always put at the top of the file, just after any
module comments and doc strings and before module globals and
constants. Imports should be grouped with the order being most generic
to least generic:
</p>
<ul>
<li>standard library imports</li>
<li>third-party imports</li>
<li>application-specific imports</li>
</ul>
<p>
Within each grouping, imports should be sorted lexicographically,
ignoring case, according to each module's full package path.

However, you may put the
result of a test on the same line as the test only if the entire
statement fits on one line. In particular, you can never do so
with <code>try</code>/<code>except</code> since the
<code>try</code> and <code>except</code> can't both fit on the
same line, and you can only do so with an <code>if</code> if
there is no <code>else</code>.

On the other hand, if access is more complex, or the cost of accessing
the variable is significant, you should use function calls (following the
<a HREF="#naming">Naming</a> guidelines) such as <code>get_foo()</code>
and <code>set_foo()</code>. If the past behavior allowed access through a
property, do not bind the new accessor functions to the property. Any
code still attempting to access the variable by the old method should
break visibly so they are made aware of the change in complexity.

<em>BE CONSISTENT</em>.
</p>
<p>
If you're editing code, take a few minutes to look at the code
around you and determine its style. If they use spaces around
all their arithmetic operators, you should too. If their
comments have little boxes of hash marks around them, make your
comments have little boxes of hash marks around them too.
</p>
<p>
The point of having style guidelines is to have a common vocabulary
of coding so people can concentrate on what you're saying rather
than on how you're saying it. We present global style rules here so
people know the vocabulary, but local style is also important. If
code you add to a file looks drastically different from the existing
code around it, it throws readers out of their rhythm when they go to
read it. Avoid this.
