Why force unpacking? Why not assign a tuple? That would look like a simple assignment: x := (alpha, beta, gamma) And you could access x[0], x[1] and x[2]. I think asking := to support x, y := alpha, beta is a request to address an unnecessary, easily worked around, issue. And as previously pointed out you can still just use = .
Because the names usually have meaning, while the tuple has not. And you just confirmed my point that the walrus operator isn't very useful here by suggesting that I should abandon it and use an assignment. -- Antoon Pardon. -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
