1484 :: Lack of tuple unpacking is driving me nuts

  https://github.com/nim-lang/Nim/issues/2421

  Tuple unpacking outside of var/let block #2421

  At the moment, I have write code like this

  
  temp2 = HADec2AzAlt(HArad, Delta, latitude)
  Azimuth = temp2[1]
  Altitude = temp2[2]
  return( [Azimuth/unitdegree, Altitude/unitdegree] )
  Run

  I would rather be writing something like this

  
  (Azimuth, Altitude) = HADec2AzAlt(HArad, Delta, latitude)
  return( [Azimuth/unitdegree, Altitude/unitdegree] )
  Run

  Please finish up the Tuple unpacking before releasing nim 1.0

  This should work, or maybe it isn't enough for your case?:

  proc testTuple: (int, bool) = (666, true)
  let (a, b) = testTuple()
  Run
