python Unpacking

# unpacking values for even numbers in list comprehension
x, y, z = (i*i+i for i in range(6) if i%2==0)
x, y, z

unpacking in python

#When we create a tuple, we normally assign values to it. 
#This is called "packing" a tuple:

#Packing a tuple:
fruits = ("apple", "banana", "cherry")

#But, in Python, we are also allowed to extract the values back into variables.
#This is called "unpacking":

#Unpacking a tuple:
fruits = ("apple", "banana", "cherry")

(green, yellow, red) = fruits

print(green)
print(yellow)
print(red)

how to unpack in python

p = (4, 5)
x, y = p # x = 4, y = 5 

data = ['ACME', 50, 90.1, (2012, 12, 21)]
name, shares, price, date = data # name = ACME, shares = 50, price = 90.1, date = (2012, 12, 21)

say = "Big"
a, b, c = say # a = B, b = i, c = g
