I would pick the first form if that's the only place where x would be returned from the function. However, if there would be redundant 'return x'-es in the function because of this, then the second form becomes preferable. It's not set in stone, though - if you have a compelling reason to break the rule-of-thumb, do so. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
