ferent than a tuple unpacking assignment:
>>> a, b = 1, 2
>>> a, b
(1, 2)
>>> [a, b] = [1, 2]
>>> a, b
(1, 2)
In both instances the names a and b are both mapped to 1 and 2 so why are there
two different forms?
Thanks for any answers.

Lutz and Ascher have tuple and list assignment as separate entries in their
assignment statement forms table so I was expecting there to be some
difference; thanks for setting me straight.

A bit ironic that that's the official motto of Perl, don't you think?
