title: In Python, are multiple return values in a function sent as an implicit list?
body: <p>I am a C programmer trying to learn Python - still a newbie.</p>
  <pre><code>def fx(x, y):
      return x, y
  
  a, b = fx(1, 2)
  </code></pre>
  <p>fx() must be returning x and y as part of a data structure - perhaps a list or a tuple. Exactly what it is I need to know.</p>
  <p>Thanks for any inputs,
