As such,
I'd like to piggyback this thread for a situtation to consider in PEP 8. PEP 8 suggests no extra spaces after and before square brackets, and colons. So code like this is appropriate: a_list[1:3] But I find it less readable in the case of: a_list[pos + 1:-1] The colon is seemingly lost in the right. Would it be better to read like below? a_list[pos + 1 : -1] Any opinion?
