magespawnGood day all.10:57
superflyhi magespawn11:00
magespawnHey whats up superfly?11:02
magespawnThe main difference bewteen tabs and spaces is how the computer interprets them? I can't see any difference visually.11:06
superflymagespawn: the main difference between tabs and spaces is that spaces is the standard and tabs is not11:08
magespawnI was reading that if you mix the two you can end up with errors11:10
tumbleweedsuperfly: for python11:14
superflytumbleweed: yep, which is what magespawn is talking about11:14
tumbleweedmagespawn: python treats all tabs as 8 spaces, wheras in an editor, 4 spaces followed by a tab, will only indent 8 characters11:14
tumbleweedbut python would see that as 12 spaces11:14
magespawnRight I understand, so pick one and stay with it, and since spaces is standerd that would be best.11:16
tumbleweedyes11:17
tumbleweedmost people can't see tabs (they don't configure their editor to make them look different to spaces), so they can't see if a file is already using tabs or spaces, and mix them up horribly11:18
