“inconsistent use of tabs and spaces in indentation”

Question

I\'m trying to create an application in Python 3.2 and I use tabs all the time for indentation, but even the editor changes some of them into spaces and then print out \"inc

Answer 1

Don't use tabs.

1. Set your editor to use 4 spaces for indentation.
2. Make a search and replace to replace all tabs with 4 spaces.
3. Make sure your editor is set to display tabs as 8 spaces.

Note: The reason for 8 spaces for tabs is so that you immediately notice when tabs have been inserted unintentionally - such as when copying and pasting from example code that uses tabs instead of spaces.
