The Zenof Python
Beautiful is better than ugly.
Explicit is better than implicit.
Simple is better than complex.
Complex is better than complicated.
Flat is better than nested.
Sparse is better than dense.
Readability counts.
Special cases aren’t special enough tobreak the rules.
Although practicality beats purity.
Errors should never pass silently.
Unless explicitly silenced.
In the face of ambiguity, refuse thetemptation to guess.
There should be one-and preferably onlyone-obvious way to do it.
Although that way may not be obvious atfirst unless you’re Dutch.
Now is better than never.
Although never is often better than *right*now.
If the implementation is hard to explain,it’s a bad idea.
If the implementation is easy to explain,it may be a good idea.
Namespaces are one honking greatidea—let’s do more of those!
