[psbasha]

Hi ,

I am following backslash ('\') as continuation of line as per the coding guidelines.Is there any other character to be used as continuation of line?

Thanks in advance

One thing that I use often: Inside parens all you need is whitespace:

def FuncWithLotsOfArgs(a, b, c, d, e, f, g):
     pass
 
FuncWithLotsOfArgs(arg1WithReallyLongName, arg2WithReallyLongName, arg3WithReallyLongName,
                   arg4WithReallyLongName, arg5WithReallyLongName, arg6WithReallyLongName,
                   arg7WithReallyLongName)

elif (strTemp[:6]=='RECTAN' or strTemp[:6]=='TRIANG or \
                          strTemp[:4]== 'LINE' or strTemp[:4]== 'CIRC' or strTemp[:5]== 'POLYG' ):

the above condition check is correct,to sperate with "/" backslash as the line seperator or continuation of line

Any way that works is correct. The curse and the blessing of a language that lets you do the same thing in different ways.
