missing-whitespace-around-modulo-operator (E228)
Derived from the pycodestyle linter.
Fix is always available.
This rule is unstable and in preview. The --preview
flag is required for use.
What it does
Checks for missing whitespace around the modulo operator.
Why is this bad?
PEP 8 recommends never using more than one space, and always having the same amount of whitespace on both sides of a binary operator.
For consistency, this rule enforces one space before and after a modulo
operator (%
).
(Note that PEP 8 suggests only adding whitespace around the operator with the lowest precedence, but that authors should "use [their] own judgment".)
