pep8?

[pjadzinsky]

Any way you guys will consider pep8ing the code? The whole codebase would benefit from use of pep8 linter. Just to mention a few:

• CamelCase methods (in contrast of not_camel_case_once) are very non pythonian.
• expand names, abbreviations like 'te', 'it' and 'ts' should be avoided

Hi,
I agree for the abbreviations.
For the camel case, it is my own convention to distinguish methods from variable. I find this very usefull in scientific computing to know if an attribute is data or a computation.
I know it's not PEP8 compliant...

Hi thanks for the reply
I don't want to be too pushy but a lot of thinking went into defining pep8 and it is for a reason. By having methods be camel case you are creating a confusion between methods and classes. At the same time there shouldn't be a confusion between attributes and methods because methods have parenthesis while attributes don't.

according to your style, my_moudle.This() is this a class or a method?

according to pep8
my_module.This() is always a class
my_object.this is is always an attribute of my_object
my_object.this() is always a method

I don't see how you can confuse them

Ok let's make the next version pep8 compliant.
