Question

I have been looking over the Python documentation for code formatting best practice for large lists and dictionaries, for example,

something = {'foo' : 'bar', 'foo2' : 'bar2', 'foo3' : 'bar3'..... 200 chars wide, etc..}

or

something = {'foo' : 'bar',
             'foo2' : 'bar2',
             'foo3' : 'bar3',
             ...
             }

or

something = {
             'foo' : 'bar',
             'foo2' : 'bar2',
             'foo3' : 'bar3',
             ...
             }

How do I handle deep nesting of lists/dictionaries?

Answer 1

My preferred way is:

something = {'foo': 'bar',
             'foo2': 'bar2',
             'foo3': 'bar3',
             ...
             'fooN': 'barN'}
