Why your Python code needs to be beautiful and explicit
======
Welcome to Pythonukkah, a special series about the Zen of Python. On the
first day, we celebrate the first two principles: beauty and
explicitness.
![Searching for code][1]
Python contributor Tim Peters introduced us to the [Zen of Python][2] in 1999. Twenty years later, its 19 guiding principles continue to be relevant within the community. We start our Pythonukkah celebration—like Hanukkah, a festival of lights—with the first two principles in the Zen of Python: on beauty and explicitness.
> "Hanukkah is the Festival of Lights,
> Instead of one day of presents, we get eight crazy nights."
> —Adam Sandler, [_The Hanukkah Song_][3]
### Beautiful is better than ugly.
It was in _[Structure and Interpretation of Computer Programs][4]_ (_SICP_) that the point was made: "Programs must be written for people to read and only incidentally for machines to execute." Machines do not care about beauty, but people do.
A beautiful program is one that is enjoyable to read. This means first that it is consistent. Tools like [Black][5], [flake8][6], and [Pylint][7] are great for making sure things are reasonable on a surface layer.
But even more important, only humans can judge what humans find beautiful. Code reviews and a collaborative approach to writing code are the only realistic way to build beautiful code. Listening to other people is an important skill in software development.
Finally, all the tools and processes are moot if the _will_ is not there. Without an appreciation for the importance of beauty, there will never be an emphasis on writing beautiful code.
This is why this is the first principle: it is a way of making "beauty" a value in the Python community. It immediately answers: "Do we _really_ care about beauty?" We do.
### Explicit is better than implicit.
We humans celebrate light and fear the dark. Light helps us make sense of vague images. In the same way, programming with more explicitness helps us make sense of abstract ideas. It is often tempting to make things implicit.
"Why is **self** explicitly there as the first parameter of methods?"
There are many technical explanations, but all of them are wrong. It is almost a Python programmer's rite of passage to write a metaclass that makes explicitly listing **self** unnecessary. (If you have never done this before, do so; it makes a great metaclass learning exercise!)
The reason **self** is explicit is not because the Python core developers did not want to make a metaclass like that the "default" metaclass. The reason it is explicit is because there is one less special case to teach: the first argument is _explicit_.
Even when Python does allow non-explicit things, such as context variables, we must always ask: Are we sure we need them? Could we not just pass arguments explicitly? Sometimes, for many reasons, this is not feasible. But prioritizing explicitness means, at the least, asking the question and estimating the effort.

为什么 Python 代码要写得美观而明确
======
欢迎阅读“Python 光明节Pythonukkah”系列文章这个系列文章将会讨论《Python 之禅》。我们首先来看《Python 之禅》里的前两个原则:美观与明确。
![Searching for code][1]
早在 1999 年Python 的贡献者之一Tim Peters 就提出了《[Python 之禅][2]》直到二十年后的今天《Python 之禅》中的 19 条原则仍然对整个社区都产生着深远的影响。为此我们举行了这一次的“Python 光明节”。首先我们会讨论《Python 之禅》中的前两个原则:美观和明确。
> "Hanukkah is the Festival of Lights,
> Instead of one day of presents, we get eight crazy nights."
> —亚当·桑德勒, [光明节之歌][3]
### 美观胜于丑陋
著名的《[<ruby>计算机程序的构造和解释<rt>Structure and Interpretation of Computer Programs</rt></ruby>][4]》中有这么一句话代码是写给人看的只是恰好能让机器运行Programs must be written for people to read and only incidentally for machines to execute.)。毕竟机器并不在乎代码的美观性,但人类在乎。
阅读美观的代码对人们来说是一种享受,这就要求在整套代码中保持一致的风格。使用诸如 [Black][5]、[flake8][6]、[Pylint][7] 这一类工具能够有效地接近这一个目标。
但实际上,只有人类自己才知道什么才是真正的美观。因此,代码审查和协同开发是其中的不二法门,同时,在开发过程中倾听别人的意见也是必不可少的。
最后,个人的主观能动性也很重要,否则一切工具和流程都会变得毫无意义。只有意识到美观的重要性,才能主动编写出美观的代码。
这就是为什么美观在众多原则当中排到了首位,它让“美”成为了 Python 社区的一种价值。如果有人要问,”我们真的在乎美吗?“社区会以代码给出肯定的答案。
### 明确胜于隐晦
人类会欢庆光明、惧怕黑暗,那是因为光能够让我们看到难以看清的事物。同样地,尽管有些时候我们会不自觉地把代码写得含糊不清,但明确地编写代码确实能够让我们理解很多抽象的概念。
“为什么类方法中要将 `self` 显式指定为第一个参数?”
这个问题已经是老生常谈了,但网络上很多流传已久的回答都是不准确的。在编写<ruby>元类<rt>metaclass</rt></ruby>时,显式指定 `self` 参数就显得毫无意义。如果你没有编写过元类,希望你可以尝试一下,这是很多 Python 程序员的必经之路。
显式指定 `self` 参数的原因并不是 Python 的设计者不想将这样的元类视为“默认”元类,而是因为第一个参数必须是显式的。
即使 Python 中确实允许非显式的情况存在(例如上下文变量),但我们还是应该提出疑问:某个东西是不是有存在的必要呢?如果非显式地传递参数会不会出现问题呢?有些时候,由于种种原因,这是会有问题的。总之,在写代码时一旦能够优先考虑到明确性,至少意味着能对不明确的地方提出疑问并对结果作出有效的估计。
