hi just a quick question, why is

my_pens = 4
my_pencils = 5

is preffered to

my_pens     = 4
my_pencils = 5

*referring to = symbol alignment


I will sometimes line things up, if a block of assignments are related:

  red     = 1
  green   = 2
  blue    = 3

There might sometimes be extra maintenance if you then add:

  turquoise = 4

and have to readjust the others, or you add:

  yellow    = 201

and prefer the number should be aligned right-justified:

  red       =   1
  green     =   2
  blue      =   3
  turquoise =   4
  yellow    = 201

but it's not hard. Although it might not be worth doing until a program is finished. Compare to:

  red = 1
  green = 2
  blue = 3
  turquoise = 4
  yellow = 201
