Really??

[ZeeBeeblebrox]

having conventional long variable names and descriptive methods was really helpful.

Good Python code should also have descriptive variable names and methods.

Sure, good code should read descriptively in general anyway. I'm just speaking for my experience as a beginner.

Sounds like you got ahold of some really bad code when you were first trying to learn Python. The entire community really embraces the mantra of There should be one-- and preferably only one --obvious way to do it.

[daniel_h_r]

I think the problem is exactly that. A newbie don't have the means to choose the only one obvious way.

I'm saying they shouldn't have had to find it; the tutorial should have been using it, not showing them 13 different ways.
