python variable naming convention code example

Example 1: python naming conventions

#module names should be all lowercase
import mymodule
#normal variables are lowercase_with_underscores
my_variable = 'value'
#constants are UPPERCASE
CONSTANT = 'never changes'
#classes are UpperCaseCamelCase
class MyClass(self):
    pass

Example 2: camelcase naming convention python

# CamelCase is the way you are meant to name classes:
class ExampleClass(self):
  pass
# Start each word with a capital
# Don't seperate words with underscores

Example 3: pep8

# pep8 Style Guide for Lists
my_list = [
    1, 2, 3,
    4, 5, 6,
    ]
result = some_function_that_takes_arguments(
    'a', 'b', 'c',
    'd', 'e', 'f',
    )

Example 4: pep8

# pep8 Style Guide for Lists (easier to see indentation imo)
my_list = [
    1, 2, 3,
    4, 5, 6,
]
result = some_function_that_takes_arguments(
    'a', 'b', 'c',
    'd', 'e', 'f',
)

Example 5: python naming script

# Function gets name from user
def get_name():
    print("Hello what is your name?")
    name = input("My name is: ")
    print("Hello ", name)
    return name
