MRtrix3 provides a set of tools to perform various advanced diffusion MRI analyses, including constrained spherical deconvolution (CSD), probabilistic tractography, track-density imaging, and apparent fibre density
I don't recall what decision making process I may have gone through at the time regarding string quoting in Python. But at some point I landed on using single quotes throughout. I've noticed recently in population_template that there's a mixture of single and double quotes.
I wonder if converting everything to double quotes would make sense, given it shares a repository with C++ code, where single quotes are for individual characters.
It would not require escape characters for apostrophes contained within strings; conversely, there are many instances of quoting text within strings that are probably most appropriately done using double-quotes, and so those would need to be escaped.
While pylint does not seem to be able to enforce one particular convention, it does at least allow for reporting a problem if a string is quoted using a character other than what appears to be the convention for the rest of the file.
Does anyone feel particularly strongly one way or another?
