hai prog: multiple return values

Hello

I know one can use pass-by-reference for getting multiple values back from a function, but is there a language that allows you to actually define multiple outputs seperate from the parameter list for super neatness.

I was thinking it would be super-cool to have an auto-defined struct based on the function return values. so in some pseudo-language it would be like...


def splitstring  string<s char<sep string>a string>b

s = "hello world"

splitstring s ' '

printf(splitstring.a)
printf(splitstring.b)

would that be totally kawaii aewsome?

obviously each thread would have its only instances of these auto-structs.

This is why they don't write operating systems in languages such as Python.
Holy fuck. You honestly believe *indentation* is the only reason they aren't writing operating systems in Python.

You, sir, are completely out to lunch. You must be stoned, or trolling, or something. There's no possible way any serious person in their right mind could make such a statement.
