In one of my project, I was in need to return multiple variables from a method. I searched and found very good Groovy way for ‘Multiple Assignment’, This allows us to assign multiple variables at once.<\/p>\n

\nassert str1 == ‘Groovy’ &amp;&amp; str2 == ‘and’ &amp;&amp; str3 == ‘Grails'[\/groovy]<\/p>\n

We can have types as part of the declaration
\n[groovy]
\ndef (int a,String b) = [10,’someString’]
\n[\/groovy]<\/p>\n

With method calls
\n[groovy]
\ndef someMethod(){
\n[5,’Hello’]
\n}
\ndef (int a,String b) = someMethod()
\n[\/groovy]<\/p>\n
