I am bundling the values to avoid a second function call, as I need both and this function is called very often in an inner loop. What I am not satisfied with when using a name such as those you suggested is that they are not descriptive of the datetype being returned.Ali Rasim Kocal– Ali Rasim Kocal2019-12-14 12:39:01 +00:00Commented Dec 14, 2019 at 12:39

Yes, that's a good suggestion as a rule of thumb, however, my concern for being indicative of the data structure remains, especially for dynamically typed languages such as python.Ali Rasim Kocal– Ali Rasim Kocal2019-12-14 12:42:00 +00:00Commented Dec 14, 2019 at 12:42

@AliRasimKocal tuple names should not be indicative of each element, rather of the concept that brought them together.candied_orange– candied_orange2019-12-14 12:44:45 +00:00Commented Dec 14, 2019 at 12:44

1It's not that we want them to be forced to check documentation. It's that we want the correct level of abstraction. Save element names for when you're breaking it out into the elements. And no rush with the check. Hope you get plenty of good answers.candied_orange– candied_orange2019-12-14 12:55:33 +00:00Commented Dec 14, 2019 at 12:55

- backtick escapes
`like _so_` - quote by placing > at start of line

How to Tag
A tag is a keyword or label that categorizes your question with other, similar questions. Choose one or more (up to 5) tags that will help answerers to find and interpret your question.
- complete the sentence: my question is about...
- use tags that describe things or concepts that are essential, not incidental to your question
- favor using existing popular tags
- read the descriptions that appear below the tag
If your question is primarily about a topic for which you can't find a tag:
- combine multiple words into single-words with hyphens (e.g. design-patterns), up to a maximum of 35 characters
- creating new tags is a privilege; if you can't yet create a tag you need, then post this question without it, then ask the community to create it for you
