Cognitive Complexity
Cognitive Complexity is a measure of how difficult a unit of code is to intuitively understand. Unlike Cyclomatic Complexity, which determines how difficult your code will be to test, Cognitive Complexity tells you how difficult your code will be to read and comprehend.
A method's cognitive complexity is based on a few simple rules:
- Code is not considered more complex when it uses shorthand that the language provides for collapsing multiple statements into one
- Code is considered more complex for each "break in the linear flow of the code"
- Code is considered more complex when "flow breaking structures are nested"

Surround operators with a single space on either side.
- Always surround these binary operators with a single space on
either side: assignment (=), augmented assignment (+=, -= etc.),
comparisons (==, <, >, !=, <=, >=, in, not in, is, is not),
Booleans (and, or, not).
- If operators with different priorities are used, consider adding
whitespace around the operators with the lowest priorities.

Use indent_size (PEP8 says 4) spaces per indentation level.
For really old code that you don't want to mess up, you can continue
to use 8-space tabs.
