python之禅中文-python之禅

Beautiful is better than ugly.

# 优美胜于丑陋

Explicit is better than implicit.

# 明了胜于晦涩

Simple is better than complex.

# 简洁胜于复杂

Complex is better than complicated.

# 复杂胜于凌乱

Flat is better than nested.

# 扁平胜于嵌套

Sparse is better than dense.

# 间隔胜于紧凑

Readability counts.

# 可读性很重要

Special cases aren't special enough to break the rules.

Although practicality beats purity.

# 即便假借特例的实用性之名，也不可违背这些规则

Errors should never pass silently.

Unless explicitly silenced.

# 不要包容所有错误，除非你确定需要这样做

In the face of ambiguity, refuse the temptation to guess.

# 当存在多种可能，不要尝试去猜测

There should be one-- and preferably only one --obvious way to do it.

# 而是尽量找一种，最好是唯一一种明显的解决方案

Although that way may not be obvious at first unless you're Dutch.

# 虽然这并不容易，因为你不是 Python 之父

Now is better than never.

Although never is often better than *right* now.

# 做也许好过不做，但不假思索就动手还不如不做

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.

# 如果你无法向人描述你的方案，那肯定不是一个好方案；

Namespaces are one honking great idea -- let's do more of those!

# 命名空间是一种绝妙的理念，我们应当多加利用
