#pythonic

Maybe ive only ever been close enough to #Python to really see and feel the warts but there was certainly enough to deter me from espousing anything #Pythonic from being an ideal. Or maybe I'm throwing the baby out with the bathwater.

Growing pains, I guess

Hey #Python folks (and I'm looking especially at you @treyhunner) what's the most #pythonic way to “write to file if it exists, else create it and then write to it”?

`open(filename, ‘x’)` only works once, AIUI. I want a code snippet (or library!) that will work every time

Deconstructing xkcd.com/1987 by @brettcannon https://snarky.ca/deconstructing-xkcd-com-1987/ #pythonic

While working with #Python, I miss being able to use an assignment statement as an expression, particularly when constructing a while loop.

Example:
while ((myDate = NextFOM (myDate)) <= EndDate):
print ("First of Month", myDate)

From what I've read, it looks like a #Pythonic way to rewrite the above code looks like this:

while True:
myDate = NextFOM (myDate)
if myDate > EndDate:
break
print ("First of Month", myDate)

It is just not very #pythonic (readable) so I was just wondering if it was just my background or others find it hard to read too :)

So #Python does not support the basic programming language concept of a constant value. Claiming it's not #Pythonic . Hmm...

OK, fellow #Python devs. I’ve donned my asbestos suit and am ready to open the door to the inferno. 😆 I’m writing a piece for my students (elementary Python class) on writing “Pythonic" code, which might expand into a blog entry at some point. So, with that in mind...

What are some common things that tell you a piece of code is Pythonic?

Could be stylistic, could be functional, anything's good. I'm just looking for tell-tale signs of #Pythonic code vs. code written with an “accent" from another language. (A couple I’ve already scribbled down: list comprehensions, lambda over map/filter…)

@bbbhltz yep.. bet all these people gonna be crying when they eventually hammer in the nails in the coffin for #OpenWebStandards, after flocking to #chrome for that tiny shred of convenience.
You can watch live right now what happens when a few people (well, one, in the current example) get to decide for everybody what's best for them 🐦

@mozilla <3

Or to put it in #pythonic words.. it shouldn't be the lady in the lake deciding.

Picking up my #python project again after a while…whew, getting my mind back into the #pythonic way of thinking takes some focus!

I'm very happy and also surprised at the same time.

Better practices aren't imposed, they are discovered.

We have to collectively decide what is the #Pythonic way to use or not use the new tooling.
