Are you sure this works as you expect? I just stumbled over the following:
$ python
Python 3.2.3 (default, Jun 25 2012, 23:10:56)
[GCC 4.7.1] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> split = ['foo', 'bar']
>>> head, tail = split if len(split) == 2 else split[0], None
>>> head
['foo', 'bar']
>>> tail
>>>
I don't get it! Could someone help me, please? Why is head not 'foo'
and tail not 'bar'?
Regards,
Thomas
