The one thing every rookie does with if statements that drives me nuts
I spent 3 hours last night helping a buddy debug his Python script and it was just nested ifs inside nested ifs inside more ifs. He had 8 levels of indentation for something that could have been 4 elif statements and a dictionary lookup. Why do so many tutorials teach if/else chains instead of showing beginners how to flatten logic with proper data structures?
