consolidate the whole information. If anyone has done this
kinda stuff before or if anyone can point me to a correct/better way,
it would be really great.

I have two general questions regarding Python that I couldn't find any good
answers for. This is not the often-asked Tabs vs Spaces question, so kindly
read it in whole.
*Q1.* This is not to debate the decision, but I really wanted to know the

E.g. scenario: The tab setting in your editor could be 2 or
Hi Ned,
