test mult vars to same value, how to shorten expr?

[notnorwegian@yahoo.se]

if i want o test:
if a == 5 and b ==5 and c==5 ... z==5

is there some synctactic suagr for this?

rather than maiking one of my own i mean, something built-in like:
if a,b,c... z == 5:

How about:

if 5 == a == b == c == ... z:
...

Since Python 2.5 there's `all()`:

In [81]: a, b, c, d = 5, 5, 5, 6

In [82]: all(x == 5 for x in (a, b, c))
Out[82]: True

In [83]: all(x == 5 for x in (a, b, c, d))
Out[83]: False

if all(x == 5 for x in a,b,c,...):
print "yep"
