I hate to post such a simple Q and A here, but I seriously can't find it anywhere. Python (unsure of starting with which version) enables the remainder of the tuple to be placed in a "catch-all", for example:
>> myTuple = (1,2,3,4) >> varOne, varTwo, *remaindingTuple = myTuple. where the values left unpacked get thrown into a tuple referenced to by "remaindingTuple" I included the asterix because it seems like I remember that being the operator that specifying the tuple's dumping ground. Which brings me to my two questions: 1) what's the syntax for this operation 2) what version does it start with? -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
