Python Coding style Wrapping Lines

The definitive reference for questions like these is PEP 8. PEP 8 gives you the freedom to break pretty much anywhere you want (provided you break after a binary operator and use implied line-continuation inside parenthesis). Whenever you break a line, typically the next line starts in the column after the opening parenthesis:\n\ndef func_with_lots_of_args(arg1, arg2, arg3,\n arg4, arg5):\n\n\nMy personal style is to try to arrange things so that the stuff on each line after the break is roughly the same length.\n\ndef func(arg1, arg2, arg3,\n arg4, arg5, arg6,\n kwd='foobar'):\n\n\nrather than:\n\ndef func(arg1, arg2, arg3,\n arg4, arg5, arg6, kwd='foobar'):\n\n\nAlthough PEP8 doesn't really say you need to do it this way.\n\n\n\nAs a side note, if you have a function with that many positional arguments, you should probably reconsider your program design.",
