Raymond Hettinger added the comment: https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0008/#class-names -- "Class names should normally use the CapWords convention."
Examples: --------- crypt.py 6:from collections import namedtuple as _namedtuple 13:class _Method(_namedtuple('_Method', 'name ident salt_chars total_size')): difflib.py 34:from collections import namedtuple as _namedtuple 36:Match = _namedtuple('Match', 'a b size') dis.py 163:_Instruction = collections.namedtuple("_Instruction", 280: Generates a sequence of Instruction namedtuples giving the details of each doctest.py 107:from collections import namedtuple 109:TestResults = namedtuple('TestResults', 'failed attempted') functools.py 21:from collections import namedtuple 345:_CacheInfo = namedtuple("CacheInfo", ["hits", "misses", "maxsize", "currsize"]) inspect.py 51:from collections import namedtuple, OrderedDict 323:Attribute = namedtuple('Attribute', 'name kind defining_class object') 968:Arguments = namedtuple('Arguments', 'args, varargs, varkw') 1008:ArgSpec = namedtuple('ArgSpec', 'args varargs keywords defaults') 1032:FullArgSpec = namedtuple('FullArgSpec', 1124:ArgInfo = namedtuple('ArgInfo', 'args varargs keywords locals') 1317:ClosureVars = namedtuple('ClosureVars', 'nonlocals globals builtins unbound') 1372:Traceback = namedtuple('Traceback', 'filename lineno function code_context index') 1412:FrameInfo = namedtuple('FrameInfo', ('frame',) + Traceback._fields) nntplib.py 159:GroupInfo = collections.namedtuple('GroupInfo', 162:ArticleInfo = collections.namedtuple('ArticleInfo', No doubt, there are exceptions to the rule in the standard library which is less consistent than we might like: "stat_result". That said, stat_result is a structseq and many C type names are old or violate the rules (list vs List, etc). New named tuples should follow PEP 8 can use CapWords convention unless there is a strong reason not to in a particular case. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue26860> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
