Right Ward Assignment of Variables

Here you can take a look at an experimental feature that they might add to Ruby 2.8 alias version 3.0 that has not frozen its list of new features and improvements.

Here are two examples of how the code looks like right now till Ruby 2.7 and how it will be in 2.8.

Code:

first, second = [1, 2]
[1, 2] => first, second

The classic assignment looks fine but it is not natural according to the writer. The latter actually lets you read it the same way you would describe it to a friend that knows no Ruby at all.

As the article says, it might not be implemented if there's lack of interest or it looks lame. Even so take in consideration that there are other programming languages that already offer this features like R (for scientific databases?) and TI-BASIC.

So what do you think about it, guys?
