On occasion, I put long URL's into comments/docstrings simply to document
where I found specific information. However, to be a good disciple of
PEP8, anything which can't fit within 72 characters needs to be split
across multiple lines. Since a number of you seem to be prolific Python
coders, what opinion do you have about splitting URL's in
comments/docstrings?
In my opinion this is one of the cases where this quote from PEP 8 applies:
"However, know when to be inconsistent -- sometimes style guide
recommendations just aren't applicable. When in doubt, use your best
judgment."
My preference would be not to split the URLs. The reader doesn't need to
see the whole URL to understand the structure of the code; the full URL
is really only needed to copy/paste it into a browser.
