[Tutor] Re: tuple/list assignment in 'for-in'

Thanks. I realized this mistake right before you replied. Yup, the coincidence of my test cases threw me there. By the way, what's a good way to reply to specific subjects and quoting when using the mailing list through g-mail here? ___ Tutor maillist -

[Tutor] tuple/list assignment in 'for-in'

ll last): File "", line 1, in -toplevel- [f + g for f, g in '123', '456'] ValueError: too many values to unpack So why does it accept references to strings but not string literals? The third example works with a tuple assignment of string literals but not in the for-in? Any good reason for this, or is it just a quirk?
