I'd never want to rely on my own ability to remember the language spec, so I strongly advocate for making it explicit with parens regardless of what the language defines. And that's if I ever created such a mess in the first place. If you have more than one pair of conditional expressions in a single assignment, I'd suggest that it's a code-smell that could use refactoring for clarity/disambiguity. -tkc -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
