Hi,Depends. Does your program use the note values as named constants, or
in an application I have to use some variables with fixed valuse.
For example, I'm working with musical notes, so I have a global
dictionary like this:
natural_notes = {'C': 0, 'D': 2, 'E': 4 ....}
This actually works fine. I was just thinking if it wasn't better to
use class variables.
Since I have a class Note, I could write:
class Note:
C = 0
D = 2
...
Which style maybe better? Are both bad practices?
does it lookup the values dynamically based on the note name?
If the former, then the class is marginally better, though putting the
assignments in a (possibly separate) module would probably be best. If
the latter, than the dictionary is fine.
Cheers,
Chris
