Hi!
Suppose you're writing a module & writing the definition of each function in that module in " or """. for example: a) "This function does this & that" or: b) """This function does blah blah blah"""
What are the differences between " and """ ? I'm using gedit & I wanna know a bit about coding
style.
To be very honest: I have a very strict boss who looks for bugs in my codes & he insists to know exactly which 'CODING STYLE AUTHORITATIVE SOURCE' I've based my coding style on when using " or """.
Can anybody out there give me some hint? Can anybody tell me where to find a document on python coding style.
Triple quotes allow you to have quotes inside the string. I tend to use triple quotes if I'm writing text of any length, that way I dont need to change anything if I do need to insert a quote. I dont think its a matter of coding style, its purely a practical issue. If your PHB insists on consistency, I would just use """
