Styling multi-line conditions in 'if' statements?

Question

Sometimes I break long conditions in ifs onto several lines. The most obvious way to do this is: if (cond1 == 'val1' and cond2 == 'val2' and cond3 == 'val3' and cond4 == 'val4'): do_something It isn't very appealing visually, because the action blends with the conditions. However, it is the natural way using the correct Python indentation of 4 spaces. For the moment I'm using: if ( cond1 == 'val1' and cond2 == 'val2' and cond3 == 'val3' and cond4 == 'val4'): do_something But this isn't very pretty. :-) Can you recommend an alternative way? Select the correct answer from above options

Answer 1

For multi-line, if statement you can use the following way:- if(cond1 == 'val1' and \ cond2 == 'val2' and \ cond3 == 'val3' and \ cond4 == 'val4'): Do_something If you will follow below-mentioned way then it will shave a few characters and makes it clear that there's no subtlety to the condition. if all( [cond1 == 'val1', cond2 == 'val2', cond3 == 'val3', cond4 == 'val4'] ): if any( [cond1 == 'val1', cond2 == 'val2', cond3 == 'val3', cond4 == 'val4'] ):
