Python a, b = b, a +b

Question

This is my first question and I started to learn Python. Is there a difference between:

a, b = b, a + b

and

a = b
b = a +          


        

Answer 1

a, b = b, a + b is similar to a, b = 0, 1 assigning values to both variables a, b at same time. First assign a = b and then b = a + b.
