-# Coding Guidelines
-
-* Do not use features above **Python 3.5**
-* [PEP8](https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0008/) code style shall be used.
-  * Exception: Lines may be as long as needed (--ignore=E501)
-* We use pytest for testing. Please use the following pytest config:
-
-```python
-[pytest]
-addopts = --pep8 -v --cov=./
-pep8ignore =
-    *.py E501
-```
-* Test coverage should be as high as possible (at least 95%).
-* Do not mix quotation: Use **'**single quotes**'** at all time.
-* ```(__main__)``` programs must have a return value: use **sys.exit()**
-* ```(__main__)``` programs shall provide *--version* (-v) and *--help* (-h) command line options: use **argparse**
-* Dates should be formated according to ISO 8601: **YYYY-MM-DD**
