Python Comma Seperate Variables

Question

I am trying to understand how this comma separated solution works and how it is called, example:

b, c=0, 5
print(b,c)

>>0 5

You can unpack iterables in assginment. `b,c=0,5` is the same as `b=0;c=5` — The Thonnu, Jan 04 '23 at 17:35
You can take a look at this [ressource](https://stackabuse.com/unpacking-in-python-beyond-parallel-assignment/) — Nonlinear, Jan 04 '23 at 17:38

Comma separated values are interpreted as tuple, which can be unpacked:

t = 0,5 # sames as t = (0,5)
print(type(t))
a,b = t
print(a,b)

Out:

<class 'tuple'>
0 5
