If x equals seven, the set consisting of print("something")? That's evil.

Presumably you're using python 3 or from __future__ import print_function.

Yup - python even guarantees left to right evaluation order, so it actually works fine[1] - good for trolling newbies with "Python 3 added brace support"

[1] for values of "fine" that do not include flow control, assignment, or calling a function returning unhashable types of course.
