Pylint is very opinionated. Feel free to adjust its configuration to suit your opinions of style. In particular, several of these might be related to PEP8 style issues.

A docstring is a docstring, a comment is a comment. Google python docstrings :) Python prefers files to have a docstring on top, and functions beneath their definition. Comments should be used as little as possible, as they must be maintained: an incorrect comment is worse then no comment.

Its cleaner, easier to read. In Python 2 where range() returns a list, its faster. (In python2, xrange returns a lazy evaluating range) Use the tools Python gives you. Why reinvent enumerate when its built in? -- Stephen Hansen m e @ i x o k a i . i o
