Well, I know it *works* ... I just choose not to do it in Python. Everyone has their 'style'.
https://peps.python.org/pep-0008/ "assignment (+=, -= etc.), comparisons (==, <, >, !=, <=, >=, in, not in, is, is not), Booleans (and, or, not)."
But isn't && and || more better ? If the meaning is more obscure then it MUST be better ! :-)
There's some benighted language that does not have += etc. Maybe R. I looked at that briefly before deciding anything I could do in R I could do in Python without learning new weirdness.
'R' ??? You must have some very special needs ! -- https://mail.python.org/mailman3//lists/python-list.python.org
