有时候,甚至优秀的程序员在他们首次尝试用Python时,会很少使用最佳方案和数据结构。在过去数年中,Python也逐渐累积了一些诸如:冗余,缺点等瑕疵(它们中的一部分会从Python3.0中移除,这篇文章主要基于Python 2.5,不针对之后的版本,比如说Python 2.6,同样不针对Jython 或 PyPy 或 IronPython 它们之间有点微妙的差异),但是总而言之,Python依然是非常干净、简洁的语言,本文也像这样,目的是为了让你避免程序开发实践中最可能碰到的误区。本文同样简短,你甚至能发现在线解释。
当然啦,我也许可能是错误的,但该页(文)来自一些练习,因此当你不同意我观点的时候,我建议你通过邮件组或者网页去查找答案,而不是想当然的自以为是。如果你的确发现我错误,或者有任何建议,看法。请通过邮件练习我们,我们会非常高兴,并改正错误.
