title: Unpacking an array in python
body: <p>I have a variable data that is of <code>(1000L, 3L)</code> shape and I do the following to get the coordinates:</p>
  
  <pre><code>x = data[:,0]
  y = data[:,1]
  z = data[:,2]
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Is there a way to unpack them? I tried but it doesn't work:</p>
  
  <pre><code>[x,y,z] = data1[:,0:3]
  </code></pre>
