> That doesn't make sense. What if your keys are tuples? Oh, I still think it makes sense. Both x and k would be bound to the key tuples. For example it would "work" consistently with Common Lisp multiple values. And it's not clear to me that unpacking key tuples would be used anywhere near as often as item unpacking. But Python doesn't have other objects that behave like Common Lisp multiple values, and it would change the meaning of currently correct programs, so it's a non-starter. _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
