That's my preference. Tuples would work as well but they have
two minor issues for me:
- Unlike a struct, the members are anonymous. (Yes, tuples
members can have names as well but not when returning or
creating conveniently by 'return tuple(a, b)'.)
- Unlike Python, there is no automatic tuple expansion so one
has to refer to the members as result[0] and result[1], which
is less readable than struct members. (Yes, there is some
support for tuple expansion e.g. in foreach but it has some
issues with the automatic foreach loop counter.)
Summary: I return by struct. :)
