do you also do line breaks in your code like you would in a poem? the linter doesn't understand. i broke the line like that for a reason, mainly because it makes it more readable. have never worked with a programmer who understood that.
- samplatt 2y agoIn chat programs today and all the way back to my early IRC years, I've been putting a space between a ? or ! and the preceding word, if the word is at the end of the line/paragraph. Coffee? Yes, please ! It's probably just a neurodivergent quirk, but it's always felt far more readable and just... right.
- mometsi 2y agoI have freed the symbols from your clumsy lines which the linter probably considers in error Indulge me it's more readable neat functions in neat form
- rikroots 2y agoNot in Python. Whitespace and lineation can be important in some poems and Python just doesn't have the flexibility. I have experimented with Javascript eval(``) ... but prefer not to talk about it.
- greenie_beans 2y agopython is one of the languages where i do this. it's more using good typographical practices with line breaks, rather than using whitespace. especially with code comments
