1 | # Zen of Python typographic poster

7 | Here is a transcript of the Zen of Python itself, as you would have by running `python -m this` or `import this` within a Python shell:
8 |
9 | ```txt
10 | Beautiful is better than ugly.
11 | Explicit is better than implicit.
12 | Simple is better than complex.
13 | Complex is better than complicated.
14 | Flat is better than nested.
15 | Sparse is better than dense.
16 | Readability counts.
17 | Special cases aren't special enough to break the rules.
18 | Although practicality beats purity.
19 | Errors should never pass silently.
20 | Unless explicitly silenced.
21 | In the face of ambiguity, refuse the temptation to guess.
22 | There should be one-- and preferably only one --obvious way to do it.
23 | Although that way may not be obvious at first unless you're Dutch.
24 | Now is better than never.
25 | Although never is often better than *right* now.
26 | If the implementation is hard to explain, it's a bad idea.
27 | If the implementation is easy to explain, it may be a good idea.
28 | Namespaces are one honking great idea -- let's do more of those!
29 | ```

31 | ## If you're interested in a printed version, you can:
32 |
33 | - Buy one on [DeviantArt](http://ewjoachim.deviantart.com/art/Zen-of-Python-Poster-397139195). I get around 15% of the price and so far, I've been sending this money (which for 2 years of this poster beeing sold was $10 !) to the [Python Software Foundation](https://www.python.org/psf/)
34 | - Have it printed by a professionnal nearby on glossy paper for $20 to $80 depending on the size (of the poster) and the greediness (of your nearby print company). (I got mine for ~$40 but the quality is really neat)
35 | - Display it on a giant TV or using a projector, but that's not cool for both penguins and your elecricity bill.
36 |
37 | ## This poster of the Zen of Python uses material borrowed from different source:
38 |
39 | - [The Zen of Python by Tim Peters](https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0020/), included in every good distribution of Python if you type ``import this``
40 | - It mainly uses the [Menlo font](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Menlo_(typeface)) which is used by [Sublime Text](http://www.sublimetext.com/) on OSX
41 | - It uses the [Monokai Classic](https://github.com/rjfranco/monokai-light/blob/a96af9ead72f3761198bfb82fc56a7f52e7930c0/Monokai.tmTheme) and [Monokai Light](https://github.com/anoff/hyper-monokai-light/blob/9b0bd528805e5561395bab4e0c7935d3e8756b5b/index.js) color schemes
42 | - There are also traces of other fonts which I'm sure you can recognize (and probably nuts)
43 |
44 | ## I'm using all this stuff without explicit permission
45 |
46 | But if that's infringing on anything, please feel free to [contact me](https://twitter.com/Ewjoachim) in any way (if possible, not by a cease-and-desist letter from your lawyer)
47 |
48 | ## The poster is distributed as different formats:
49 |
50 | - png (Web and "Print". There's no such thing as a png for print but you'll get less ugly pixels from the hi-res version)
51 | - pdf
52 | - svg
53 | - InDesign
54 |
55 | ## What this poster will bring to your everyday work:
56 |
57 | - The safety of knowing that you can now easily refer to any of the Zen of Python lines by its number
58 | - A geek decoration to your desk surroundings that will warn people that they're about to hear some high quality philosophical pythonic advice
59 | - Inspiration and guid(o)ance when struggling on an important design decision
