Description: let3
        ====
        
        *Assign variables wherever, whenever you want.*
        
        Overview
        ========
        
          *let3* is a strict fork of Taylor Marks's let_ package with a fix allowing
          to work with Python3 or higher and with a little code reformatting and
          minor improvements.
        
          Overview below is a copy from the original let_ website (with only the
          necessary changes regarding let3).
        
        Quick Start
        -----------
        Once you've installed, you can really quickly verified that it works with just this:
        
        .. code-block:: python
        
            >>> from let import let
            >>> if let(count = len('Hello World!')):
            ...     print(count)
            12
        
        Documentation
        -------------
        In C, Java, and many other languages, it's possible to assign variables inside
        of if or while condition statements. This is useful in allowing you to concisely
        both assign the value, and check whether a condition is met.
        
        This ability doesn't exist in Python, because of the thought that when people
        write something like:
        
        .. code-block:: python
        
            if row = db.fetch_results():
                ...
        
        They may have actually meant:
        
        .. code-block:: python
        
            if row == db.fetch_results():
                ...
        
        Personally, I have never made this mistake. It seems far more like a theoretical
        mistake that could plausibly happen than one that actually happens and warrants
        removing features, as was chosen in Python.
        
        Anyways, the let function in this module gives you something very close to that
        ability in other languages. A few examples:
        
        .. code-block:: python
        
            if let(name = longInstanceName.longAttributeName):
                ...
        
            # Yes, db.fetch_results() should just return a generator. No, it doesn't.
            while let(results = db.fetch_results()):
                ...
        
            if let(count = len(nameValuePair)) != 1:
                raise Exception('Bad amount: {}'.format(count))

        Changes of the original *let*:
        
        1.0.1 (Feb 25, 2016)
        --------------------
        - Let now assigns the variables to the global namespace always - never
          the local namespace. The Python interpreter sometimes optimizes variables
          within the local namespace - it's best not to change values behind its
          back, as it leads to very difficult to discover bugs.
        
        1.0.0 (Feb. 7, 2016)
        --------------------
        - Initial commit
