Question

I want to return two lists from a function in python. How can i do that. And how to read them in the main program. Examples and illustrations would be very helpful.

Answer 1

You can return a tuple of lists, an use sequence unpacking to assign them to two different names when calling the function:

def f():
    return [1, 2, 3], ["a", "b", "c"]

list1, list2 = f()
