Is there any shortcut key in Spyder python IDE to indent the code block? For example, Like ctr+[ in Matlab, I want to indent the code block together.

    I'm not familiar with Spyder in particular, but many IDEs will let you select all the lines you want to indent and then press tab; this will indent all of the select lines. Or use Shift-tab to un-indent. Here is a link to the documentation: pythonhosted.org/spyder/overview.html . It says that in the preferences dialogue box, one can find keyboard shortcuts.

Select your code and press Tab for indent and Shift+Tab to un-indent.

or go to Edit -> Indent/Unindent

Edit section also contains some other tools for editing your code.
