Use brackets instead of indentation.
Project description
Use c-style brackets instead of indentation. This is an encoding, you can also import this module in sites.py, it will register the encoding on import.
To install:
pip install brackets
to use this, add the magic encoding comment to your source file:
# coding: brackets
Then you can import it directly (obvsly brackets should be imported first), or if you added the encoding to your sites.py, you can use idle to view the decoded file.
Currently just works for “if|elif|else|for|while|def|with” statements. It’s also possible to mix indentation and brackets. You can do that, but it is not recommended. This started as a code, a hobby project in 2014, but now I started working on it again, and I rewrote it completely.
You can also decode brackets literals:
import brackets a = b'brackets code' a.decode('brackets')
To know how to code with brackets examine the examples provided here. There’s no warranty. There might be parsing errors, report if there are any, feel free to make a pull request.
What this can do?
This will convert:
if(1 in {1,2,3}){ print(5) for(x in c){ print(c) } }
To this:
if(1 in {1,2,3}): print(5) for x in c: print(c)
It works for messy code too. see how this can work on this one-line code:
def fib(n){if(n in 0){return n}else{return fib(n-1)+fib(n-2)}}
The result from the previous is:
def fib(n): if(n in 0): return n else: return fib(n-1)+fib(n-2)
using ; is supported:
import io; def fib(n){/* code */} ; print("hello");
You can also write anonymous functions like this:
print([def(x, y) {return x + y}(x, y) for x in range(0, 5) for y in range(-5, 0)]) print([def(x) { if(x in [0, 1]) {return x}; while (x < 100) { x = x ** 2} return x}(x) for x in range(0, 10)])
Not necessarily in one line:
print([def(x) { if(x in [0, 1]) { return x }; while (x < 100) { x = x ** 2 }; return x }(x) for x in range(0, 10)])
Note that this anonymous function isn’t Python lambda, they’re real functions, without limitations of lambda.
There’s support for function templates, they can be formatted the same way as strings are formatted, you cannot insert new code unless you’re formatting them with a function:
template = def { while ({0}){ {0} -= 1; print({0}); } } func = template.format(10) func()
