https://discuss.python.org/t/walrus-fails-with/15606/1 Just a quick straw poll, how would people feel about relaxing the restriction on the walrus operator so that iterable unpacking is allowed? # Currently a syntax error. results = (1, 2, (a, b) := (3, 4), 5) which would create the following bindings: results = (1, 2, (3, 4), 5) a = 3 b = 4 A more complex example: expression = "uvwxyz" results = (1, 2, ([a, *b, c] := expression), 5) giving: results = (1, 2, "uvwxyz", 5) a = "u" b = ("v", "w", "x", "y") c = "z" Thoughts? -- Steve _______________________________________________ Python-ideas mailing list -- python-ideas@python.org To unsubscribe send an email to python-ideas-le...@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman3/lists/python-ideas.python.org/ Message archived at https://mail.python.org/archives/list/python-ideas@python.org/message/5CWWY4EZKXLJZD47NSQA6TRD5SWMFGOJ/ Code of Conduct: http://python.org/psf/codeofconduct/
