忽略 Python 中返回的元组的一部分？

Question

With the following code, is there any way to specify that I don't care about the 'address' part of the tuple returned?

(data, address) = socket.recvfrom(512)

Ideally, I'd like to do something like this:

data = socket.recvfrom(512)

Thanks!

Answer 1

data = socket.recvfrom(512)[0]

Answer 2

option one, just grab the elements you are intereseted in:

data = socket.recvfrom(512)[0]

option two, use a word that tells the reader you don't care:

data, dummy = socket.recvfrom(512)
