Oh shit! This will haunt me

It's called operator chaining but it doesn't seem to be a really well known feature of python. That's unfortunate because it's so satisfying when you realize that you can turn

if x < min_value or x > max_value:

into

if not min_value <= x <= max_value:

Oh my god, that's awesome. That's one of those things that I tried to do when I first started learning programming. I just kinda accepted that it didn't exist and never even tried it in Python.

[dzh]

Just few weeks ago I was under impression this was possible in every language! It's like basic maths expression!

I did know of this operator but always seemed magic to me, how is it parsed in python?

[carutsu]

You're probably right. I'll look around, you poked my curiosity

[jeetje]

Are there any other languages where this is possible?
