Hi, I am just starting to learn Python (I have been at it only a few hours), so please bear with me. I have a few very small scripts (do you call them scripts or programs?) which work properly, and produce the results intended.
However, they are monolithic in nature; i.e. they begin at the beginning and finish at the end. Having done a little reading, I note that it seems to be quite common to have a function main() at the start (which in turn calls other functions as appropriate), and then to call main() to do the work. Is that standard best practice? Thanks -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
