Define multiple variables at once in Kotlin (e.g Java : String x,y,z;)

Question

I was wondering if there is any way to define multiple variables in Kotlin at once like in Java and almost every other existing language in the world .

like in Java :

String x = "Hello World!", y = null, z;

Answer 1

Try this:

fun main() {
    val (x, y, z) = listOf(1, true, "Sam")    //can be "arrayOf(), "Pair()" or other types
    println("$x, $y, $z")
}

Output?

1, true, Sam

You might also find "Destructuring declarations?" helpful here.

An example:

val (name, age) = person
