Georg Brandl <ge...@python.org> added the comment: This is because the parentheses don't really belong to the tuple literal.
You could just as well write b = 1, 3.14, 'abc', u'XYZ' In other cases, the parentheses may be needed for grouping purposes (e.g. in function calls), but they still are only for grouping, just as in (a + b) * c. For the empty tuple, where the parentheses actually are part of the literal, the col_offset is correct. ---------- nosy: +georg.brandl resolution: -> invalid status: open -> closed _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue13746> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
