New submission from Matt Ward :
The 3.8 documentation still includes the text.
```Note that in Python, unlike C, assignment cannot occur inside expressions. C
programmers may grumble about this, but it avoids a common class of problems
encountered in C programs: typing = in an expression when == was intended.```
https://docs.python.org/3.8/tutorial/datastructures.html#more-on-conditions
This would seem to no longer be the case with with the inclusion of
https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0572/ in 3.8 unless I am misunderstanding
the above statement.
