As I remarked to Derek, there is no such thing as absolutes in engineering.
But I'm wondering, what's your opinion of the generalized tuple
assignment syntax talked about above? Or more generally, supporting
tuples in the language?
// Swap
a, b = b, a;
// Fibonacci!
a, b = b, a+b;
// Switching positions with the previous item in a doubly linked list,
just cause ;)
item.prev.prev, item.prev.next, item.next, item.prev,
item.prev.prev.next, item.next.prev = item.prev.next, item.next,
item.prev, item.prev.prev, item, item.prev;
Okay, maybe I'll stop now...
It looks nice, but doesn't seem to offer a big improvement.
