<li><var>v</var> is a tuple of three elements, and <code>(x, y, z)</code> is a tuple of three variables. Assigning one to the other assigns each of the values of <var>v</var> to each of the variables, in order.

<p>This has all kinds of uses. I often want to assign names to a range of values. In <abbr>C</abbr>, you would use <code>enum</code> and manually list each constant and its associated value, which seems especially tedious when the values are consecutive. In Python, you can use the built-in <code>range()</code> function with multi-variable assignment to quickly assign consecutive values.
