# class Prism::MultiWriteNode

Represents a write to a multi-target expression.

    a, b, c = 1, 2, 3
    ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

### Attributes

lefts [R]

Represents the targets expressions before a splat node.

    a, b, * = 1, 2, 3, 4, 5
    ^^^^

The splat node can be absent, in that case all target expressions are in the left field.

    a, b, c = 1, 2, 3, 4, 5
    ^^^^^^^

rest [R]

Represents a splat node in the target expression.

    a, b, *c = 1, 2, 3, 4
          ^^

The variable can be empty, this results in a `SplatNode` with a `nil` expression field.

    a, b, * = 1, 2, 3, 4
          ^

If the `*` is omitted, this field will contain an `ImplicitRestNode`

    a, b, = 1, 2, 3, 4
        ^

rights [R]

Represents the targets expressions after a splat node.

    a, *, b, c = 1, 2, 3, 4, 5
          ^^^^

value [R]

The value to write to the targets. It can be any non-void expression.

    a, b, c = 1, 2, 3
              ^^^^^^^

        (lefts.length == other.lefts.length) &&
        lefts.zip(other.lefts).all? { |left, right| left === right } &&
        (rest === other.rest) &&

        (operator_loc.nil? == other.operator_loc.nil?) &&
        (value === other.value)
    end

Implements case-equality for the node. This is effectively == but without comparing the value of locations. Locations are checked only for presence.
