don't tell me you write code without indentation

 

[superczar]

I am not a professional or even a moonlighting coder
My only coding requirement from python is to write simple scripts for basic tasks
So more often than not, I get errors pertaining to unexpected indentation which annoys me each time

Fair enough, that error is irksome for beginners (or say non professional coders)
