Today I was writing an example snippet for the book and needed to write a function that returns two values something like this:def return_multiplevalues(num1, num2): return num1, num2 I noticed that this actually returns a tuple of the values which I did not want in the first place.I wanted python to return two values in their own types so I can work with them as they are but here I was stuck with working around a tuple.
If you had a function that returned two values, how would you assign them? Maybe something like: var1, var2 = return_multiplevalues(num1, num2) ? That is exactly how Python works.
I will appreciate discussing this. You may also bring to light any current way of returning multiple values from a function that I may not know of in python if there is.
While I am somewhat alarmed that you don't know this already after four years of Python programming, I greatly appreciate you taking the time to find out. Thank you.
