I know you can't assign anything to None, but I'm sure you get what I
mean, a special keyword that means I don't care about this value.
You can just use a variable name than you ignore. It's traditional to
use _ but it's not a special keyword, it's just a another variable name:
y, _, d, _, _, _, _, _, _ = time.localtime()
But you still have have a variable that's using memory for nothing. I find
this unsatisfactory... I don't want to compare languages, but I find the
perl "undef" elegant.
