  I want to do the following

  def some_function():
       a = ...
       b = ...
       if auth.is_logged_in():
           c = ...
       else:
           c = None
       return (a=a,b=b,c=c)

  And in the view some_function.html

  {{if c is not None:}}
  do something here
  {{pass}}

  which is the best practice to do it?

Looks like a quite clean way.

You can test for a logged in user via:

if auth.user:

auth.user is the record of the currently logged in user, or None if the 
user is not logged in.

Also, do you need to do something with the value of c in the logged in 
case? If not, then just test for a logged in user directly in the view.

{{if auth.user:}}

If c is for example a form is it safe to return it but not display it
in the view??

I think it is safe but maybe waste of resources so send it to view if 
not needed.
