Do you use tuple return values often, e.g. in Python?
Not in every line of code, but they are quite useful.
Tuples are useful for other purposes too, like:
for a,b in zip((1, 2, 3), "abc"):
Here a,b is a 2-tuple that Python automatically unpack from the result of the
zip, that in Python2 is a list (array) of 2-tuples.
Typical example, I guess:
for line in File("contacts.dat"):
(name,phone,email) = line.split(';')
# process name,phone,email
