It took me longer than I'd like to admit. The lapping cat operator is truly inspired. Being a sucker for for pattern matching, I'm more likely to write foo, = seq or foo, *_ = seq than assert len(seq) == 1 foo = seq[0] or foo = seq[0] Though I vaguely call past colleagues disagreeing, or at least insisting on parens around the "foo," in the first one.
