We can return multiple values from a function in Python by simply comma separating the values we would like to return.
Examples
Return two values
def my_func(): return 1, 2
my_func()
(1, 2)
We return the two values in a tuple.
Return as list
We can alternatively return the multiple values in a list:
def my_func(): return [1, 2]
my_func()
[1, 2]
Unpacking
To unpack the returned values into variables:
a, b = my_func()print(a)print(b)
12
We can see that 1 gets stored to variable a, and 2 gets stored to variable b.
