I came back to this video to thank you. A week ago, I applied to an entry-level python job and I managed to land an interview with the company. They asked me the classic questions like "What are your weaknesses", etc, and I was bombing so hard because I wasn't confident. But then, the magical moment came. They asked me to plan out a program to invert a binary tree on a whiteboard. Thankfully, I watched this video and was able to complete the task flawlessly. The recruiter was so impressed that he recommended that I work in a senior position instead of an entry-level one. Long story short, I ended up becoming the youngest CEO of a Fortune 500 company. Thank you, Ben Awad!

@@dscham1507 Yup. The comma on the right builds a 2-tuple out of the right and left values. The comma on the left pattern matches against sequences of length two and assigns the values it finds to the left and right attributes.

Your explanation of swapping left and right was actually very welcome. I made the mistake of not using a temporary variable when I wrote my first swap function and I could not figure out why it wasn't working!!!
