Are there any pitfalls with using whitespace in Python?

Question

At the moment I have never had a problem with whitespace in Python (although I\'ve only used it in two projects and I was the only programmer). What are some potential pitf

Answer 1

It can be confusing in some editors where one line is indented with spaces and the next is indented with a tab. This is confusing as the indentation looks the same but causes an error.

Also when your copying code, if your editor doesn't have a function to indent entire blocks, it could be annoying fixing all the indentation.

But with a good editor and a bit of practice, this shouldn't be a problem. I personally really like the way Python uses white space.
