Assigning multiple variables to a list a la php's list()

Can you take a list and have it exploded into variables w/ one command? Something like.. list = ['foo', 'bar'] [a, b] = list Then 'a' would be foo and 'b' 'bar'. Like list($a,$b) = $list in PHP. Thanks! -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
