Can someone give and explanation of what is happening with the following:
a,b = 0,1 # this assigns a = 0 and b = 1
while b < 10:
... print b ... a, b = b, a+b ... 1 1 2 3 5 8
a=0 b=1 while b < 1000:
... print b ... a = b ... b = a+b ... 1 2 4 8 16 32 64 128 256 512 Why is this statement .. a, b = b, a+b different to ... a = b ... b = a+b -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
