Ok. Now I understand how you view things. I always thought it is a common idiom in Python that when the output consists of several items, then the output is a tuple of those items (so Python supports this idiom by allowing "Return a,b,c" rather than "Return (a,b,c)"). If you think there is always a choice between a tuple or a list when you return several items, expressing this explicitly in the docstring is essential. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sage-devel" group.
