That's the thing, they aren't. It's a culture thing :D

People just upvote one-liners as best practice for the sole purpose that it compacts more code into a smaller space and is thus seen as minimalist or cool.

Of course, sometimes (such as for list comprehensions or for cases where it's easier to use a built-in function) one-liners are actually best practice, but half the time, it's more likely to be someone using some esoteric, relatively niche and/or inefficient code in a one-liner.

But it's been 11 months so you probably know by now.

i had the same answer, but split into two lines 'cause of the indent. It's a great habit to get used to, especially for larger and more complex projects, so it's easier to read.

Thanks, learned a new thing today.

one liners can be clever, but not best practice most of the time (I agree with you)

I fully agree with you. It should not be. This is not so clear especially for the beginners like me.

Why are these one liners considered better practice than splitting it into a second indented line?

Thought I would be the first)

Now that is a one-liner!

Nice
