Hi,
I was wondering if the following programming recommendation would be
added to the Style Guide for Python Code (PEP 8) page.
The preferred way for checking if a key (k) exists in a dictionary (d)
is "if k in d". This is faster than "if k in d.keys()" and this has
superseded "d.has_key(k)"
Cheers,
Rahul.
