expression, `for` clause, filter expression. Multiple `for` clauses or filter

### 3.5 Blank Lines
Two blank lines between top-level definitions, be they function or class
definitions. One blank line between method definitions and between the docstring
of a `class` and the first method. No blank line following a `def` line. Use
single blank lines as you judge appropriate within functions or methods.
Blank lines need not be anchored to the definition. For example, related
comments immediately preceding function, class, and method definitions can make
sense. Consider if your comment might be more useful as part of the docstring.

### 3.6 Whitespace
Follow standard typographic rules for the use of spaces around punctuation.
No whitespace inside parentheses, brackets or braces.
```python
Yes: spam(ham[1], {'eggs': 2}, [])
```
```python
No: spam( ham[ 1 ], { 'eggs': 2 }, [ ] )
```
No whitespace before a comma, semicolon, or colon. Do use whitespace after a
comma, semicolon, or colon, except at the end of the line.
```python
Yes: if x == 4:
print(x, y)
x, y = y, x
```
```python
No: if x == 4 :
print(x , y)
x , y = y , x
```
No whitespace before the open paren/bracket that starts an argument list,
indexing or slicing.
```python
Yes: spam(1)
```
```python
No: spam (1)
```
```python
Yes: dict['key'] = list[index]
```
```python
No: dict ['key'] = list [index]
```
No trailing whitespace.
Surround binary operators with a single space on either side for assignment
(`=`), comparisons (`==, <, >, !=, <>, <=, >=, in, not in, is, is not`), and
Booleans (`and, or, not`). Use your better judgment for the insertion of spaces
around arithmetic operators (`+`, `-`, `*`, `/`, `//`, `%`, `**`, `@`).
```python
Yes: x == 1
```
```python
No: x<1
```
Never use spaces around `=` when passing keyword arguments or defining a default
parameter value, with one exception:
[when a type annotation is present](#typing-default-values), *do* use spaces
around the `=` for the default parameter value.
```python
Yes: def complex(real, imag=0.0): return Magic(r=real, i=imag)
Yes: def complex(real, imag: float = 0.0): return Magic(r=real, i=imag)
```
```python
No: def complex(real, imag = 0.0): return Magic(r = real, i = imag)
No: def complex(real, imag: float=0.0): return Magic(r = real, i = imag)
```
Don't use spaces to vertically align tokens on consecutive lines, since it
becomes a maintenance burden (applies to `:`, `#`, `=`, etc.):
```python
Yes:
foo = 1000 # comment
long_name = 2 # comment that should not be aligned
dictionary = {
'foo': 1,
'long_name': 2,
}
```
```python
No:
foo = 1000 # comment
long_name = 2 # comment that should not be aligned
dictionary = {
'foo' : 1,
'long_name': 2,
}

A method that overrides a method from a base class may have a simple docstring
sending the reader to its overridden method's docstring, such as `"""See base
class."""`. The rationale is that there is no need to repeat in many places
documentation that is already present in the base method's docstring. However,
if the overriding method's behavior is substantially different from the
overridden method, or details need to be provided (e.g., documenting additional
side effects), a docstring with at least those differences is required on the
overriding method.
Certain aspects of a function should be documented in special sections, listed
below. Each section begins with a heading line, which ends with a colon. All

##### 3.8.3.1 Overridden Methods
A method that overrides a method from a base class does not need a docstring if
it is explicitly decorated with
[`@override`](https://typing-extensions.readthedocs.io/en/latest/#override)
(from `typing_extensions` or `typing` modules), unless the overriding method's
behavior materially refines the base method's contract, or details need to be
provided (e.g., documenting additional side effects), in which case a docstring
with at least those differences is required on the overriding method.
```python
from typing_extensions import override
class Parent:
def do_something(self):
"""Parent method, includes docstring."""
# Child class, method annotated with override.
class Child(Parent):
@override
def do_something(self):
pass
```
```python
# Child class, but without @override decorator, a docstring is required.
class Child(Parent):
def do_something(self):
pass
# Docstring is trivial, @override is sufficient to indicate that docs can be
# found in the base class.
class Child(Parent):
@override
def do_something(self):
"""See base class."""
