ERC20 Token
ERC20 is one of the first token standards created in the Ethereum ecosystem. It was proposed by Fabian Vogelsteller in 2015 and to date it remains on of the most widely used token standards.
Further information on the standard can be found here:

from vyper.interfaces import ERC20
implements: ERC20
# EVENTS:
# ----- Transfer -----
# MUST trigger when tokens are transferred, including zero value transfers.
# A token contract which creates new tokens SHOULD trigger a Transfer event
# with the _from address set to 0x0 when tokens are created.
Transfer: event({_from: indexed(address), _to: indexed(address), _value: uint256})
# ----- Approval -----
# MUST trigger on any successful call to approve(address _spender, uint256 _value).
Approval: event({_owner: indexed(address), _spender: indexed(address), _value: uint256})
# STATE VARIABLES:
# values which are permanently stored in contract storage
# ----- name -----
# Returns the name of the token - e.g. "MyToken".
# OPTIONAL - This method can be used to improve usability, but interfaces and
# other contracts MUST NOT expect these values to be present.
name: public(string[64]) # TODO: is this an acceptable size?
# ----- symbol -----
# Returns the symbol of the token. E.g. "HIX".
# OPTIONAL - This method can be used to improve usability, but interfaces and
# other contracts MUST NOT expect these values to be present.
symbol: public(string[32]) # TODO: is this an acceptable size?
# ----- decimals -----
# Returns the number of decimals the token uses - e.g. 8, means to divide
# the token amount by 100000000 to get its user representation.
# OPTIONAL - This method can be used to improve usability, but interfaces and
# other contracts MUST NOT expect these values to be present.
decimals: public(uint256)
# ----- totalSupply -----
# Returns the total token supply.
totalSupply: public(uint256)
# mappings
balanceOf: public(map(address, uint256))
approvedFunds: map(address, map(address, uint256))

self.totalSupply = _totalSupply * 10 ** _decimals
# mint all tokens to the contract creator

# fire transfer event
log.Transfer(ZERO_ADDRESS, msg.sender, self.totalSupply)
# METHODS:
# NOTES:
# Callers MUST handle false from returns (bool success).
# Callers MUST NOT assume that false is never returned!
# ----- balanceOf -----
# Returns the account balance of another account with address _owner.
# See: https://github.com/ethereum/vyper/issues/1241
# And: https://vyper.readthedocs.io/en/v0.1.0-beta.8/types.html?highlight=getter#mappings
# ----- transfer -----
# Transfers _value amount of tokens to address _to, and MUST fire the Transfer
# event. The function SHOULD throw if the _from account balance does not have
# enough tokens to spend.
# NOTE: Transfers of 0 values MUST be treated as normal transfers and fire the
# Transfer event.

# substract balance from sender
self.balanceOf[msg.sender] -= _value
# add balance to recipient
self.balanceOf[_to] += _value
# fire transfer event
log.Transfer(msg.sender, _to, _value)
return True
# ----- transferFrom -----
# Transfers _value amount of tokens from address _from to address _to,
# and MUST fire the Transfer event.
# The transferFrom method is used for a withdraw workflow, allowing contracts
# to transfer tokens on your behalf. This can be used for example to allow a
# contract to transfer tokens on your behalf and/or to charge fees in
# sub-currencies. The function SHOULD throw unless the _from account has
# deliberately authorized the sender of the message via some mechanism.
# NOTE: Transfers of 0 values MUST be treated as normal transfers and fire the
# Transfer event.

# update sender balance

# update recipient balance
self.balanceOf[_to] += _value
# update approved funds
self.approvedFunds[_from][msg.sender] -= _value
# fire transfer event
log.Transfer(_from, _to, _value)
return True
# ----- approve -----
# Allows _spender to withdraw from your account multiple times, up to the _value
# amount. If this function is called again it overwrites the current allowance
# with _value.
# NOTE: To prevent attack vectors like the one described here and discussed here,
# clients SHOULD make sure to create user interfaces in such a way that they set
# the allowance first to 0 before setting it to another value for the same
# spender. THOUGH The contract itself shouldn't enforce it, to allow backwards
# compatibility with contracts deployed before.
@public

return True
# ----- allowance -----
# Returns the amount which _spender is still allowed to withdraw from _owner.
