How is my Python code? (raw.githubusercontent.com)
submitted 18 hours ago* (last edited 18 hours ago) by the_citizen@lemmy.world to c/python@programming.dev
 

I don't know if it's the true place to ask, apologizing if not. I started to python one and half week ago. So I'm still beginner.

I made a terminal based weather application with python. What do you think about the code, is it good enough? I mean is it professional enough and how can I make the same functions with more less code?

Here's the main file (I also added it as url to post): https://raw.githubusercontent.com/TheCitizenOne/openweather/refs/heads/main/openweather.py
Here's the config.json file: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/TheCitizenOne/openweather/refs/heads/main/config.json

You appear to be afraid of spaces. Everything is cramped together.

Just bc you don't have to put a space after colons or after equals and commas and whatnot doesn't mean you shouldn't

Don't be afraid of spaces.

They make it easier for you to read your code when you come back later

I revised the code. Added some spaces and comments for better readability. Hope it's better now.

Oops, sorry. I will revise the code and place spaces. Thanks for suggestion <3

Usually, you would use a formatter anyway - it's good to know the standard way but for day to day coding I just have a shortcut bound that runs ruff format (you can even have it done automatically on file save).

I need to search formatters. Thank you for suggestion.

Not the original commenter, but no need to apologise my friend. Nice work. Learning tip from me: give PEP 8 a read and save it for reference somewhere. It's the standard for how to format Python code, and future you will thank you for internalising it early on in your Python journey

Thank you I will read it.
