This is a good one and perhaps a good way of starting an exercise
right here. Can members reply with good, clean and lucid examples
for each of the "philosophy" in the Zen of Python ?
Here is one from me.
"Beautiful is better than Ugly"
1. Python arrays (lists)
one_two_three = [1,2,3]
for x in len(one_two_three):
print one_two_three[x]
2. Perl arrays
@one_two_three = (1, 2, 3)
foreach $x (@one_two_three)
{
print $x;
}
I think this is also an example for "Readability counts"...
Btw, in case it was not obvious 1 is beautiful and 2 is ugly :)
