== Why is this an issue?
|
|
|
|
Unpacking lets developers assign values of an iterable simultaneously to different targets in a single assignment.
|
|
However, for this assignment to work, the iterable should have the same number of elements as there are targets in the target list.
|
|
If this is not respected, a `ValueError` will be produced at runtime.

def foo(param):
|
|
ls = [1, 2, 3]
|
|
x, y = ls # Noncompliant
