How to return multiple values in python

This tutorial is on How to return multiple values in python. we can return multiple values from a function. you can return multiple values by simply returning them separated by commas. As an example, define a function that returns a string and a number as follows. Here we are four-way to get multiple values:

1. Object using
2. Tuple using
3. list using
4. Dictionary using

Object using

We can create a class with multiple values and return an object of the class.

class useObject(object):
    def __init__(self):
        self.str = "Devnote"
        self.num = 17

obj = useObject()
print(obj.str)
print(obj.num)

Output:
Devnote
17

Tuple using

A Tuple is a comma-separated sequence of items. It is created with or without ().

def tupalFun():
    str = "Devnote"
    num = 17
    return str, num

str, num = tupalFun()
print(str)
print(num)

Output:
Devnote
17

list using

A list is like an array of items created using square brackets. Lists are different from tuples as they are mutable.

def listFun():
    str = "Devnote"
    num = 17
    return [str, num]
list = listFun()
print(list)

Output:
['Devnote', 17]

Dictionary using

A Dictionary is similar to a hash or map in other languages.

def dictionaryFun(): 
    dc = dict();  
    dc['str'] = "Devnote"
    dc['num'] = 17
    return dc

obj = dictionaryFun()  
print(obj)

Output:
{'str': 'Devnote', 'num': 17}
