Is it possible to turn this:
if cond1 == 2 and cond2 == 3:
a = 5
b = 6
c = 7
into something like this:
if cond1 == 1 and cond2 == 2: a = 5, b = 6, c = 7
Note: I know this is not readable, recommended or practical but for the task I have at hand this is what I would like to know and use.
Just change the commas to semicolons:
if cond1 == 1 and cond2 == 2: a = 5; b = 6; c = 7
Update: Some people mentioned using tuple assignment rather than semicolons, e.g. a, b, c = 5, 6, 7
. It's true that this is probably more commonly seen, and will work in most cases, but it doesn't preserve the serial semantics of the original example. For instance, something like a = 5; b = a + 6; c = a + b
won't work with tuple assignment, but will work with semicolons.
