Re: The best editor for indentation monitoring

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



If python supports import statements for files in a user directory
indentation can be used within the context of structured programming
specifically ravioli code structured programming with narrative interface
information on each file that's imported.  I think the probability of
indentation getting out of hand with such an approach likely will be
minimal and any text editor with a tab key can be used.  So far as python
is concerned working code in structured programming form will work every
bit as well as object oriented programming.  The only question to be
answered here is what the psychology of the coder happens to be.  I got
exposed to object-oriented programming while employed and ended up not
being impressed by the concept at all.
