  • If you have just one statement as body of a loop or `if`, you can save two or more characters (depending on the current indentation level) by putting it right after the colon:
  • For example, assume you have this loop with 34 characters:
  • ```
  • for x in a:
  • do_something_with(x);
  • ```
  • Since you've got just one statement, you can delete the newline character and the following indentation space, in order to get 32 characters:
  • ```
  • for x in a:do_something_with(x);
  • ```
