+language constructs are formatted with similar rules. Style configuration options are

+little as possible, with rare exceptions like the magic trailing comma. The coding style

 `# fmt: on/off` have to be on the same level of indentation. It also recognizes
 [YAPF](https://github.com/google/yapf)'s block comments to the same effect, as a
 courtesy for straddling code.

 As for vertical whitespace, _Black_ tries to render one full expression or simple
 statement per line. If this fits the allotted line length, great.

+Almost all operators will be surrounded by single spaces, the only exceptions are unary
+operators (`+`, `-`, and `~`), and power operators when both operands are simple. For
+powers, an operand is considered simple if it's only a NAME, numeric CONSTANT, or
+attribute access (chained attribute access is allowed), with or without a preceding
+unary operator.
