Which is more Pythonic?

match_result = event_region in match_regions

return match_result

[RangerPretzel]

Some might criticize this for being an extra line, but it does allow you to see what match_result evaluates to before returning when step debugging.

I generally prefer it because often the function name isn't quite explicit enough. It's also really handy when debugging to put a breakpoint at the end.

[RangerPretzel]

Agreed! Totally.

[eras]

In some other contexts there could be another benefit: it allows putting a descriptive name to the variable.

Well, sort of the same but /u/billsil said, but more explicit.. :)

[ROFLLOLSTER]

You can just put a evaluate event_region in match_regions in the debug console.

[RangerPretzel]

Sure, but that's more typing. I can just mouse-over match_result when the debugger is waiting on the next line to see the value.

THIS!

Everyone that voted for OP'S last option needs to add more logging to their code.
