which code is more readable?

[Skaperen]

i was recoding, today, a file of a project i am working on.  that file had some code like example number 0.  so i decided to recode it like example number 1.  note that if the () are omitted, it is a syntax error where the interpreter is treating it as an assignment of three values (with the middle value being a conditional choice) to two variables, which does not make any sense.

so which of the two examples do you consider to be more readable?

example #0

if remote_hash > local_hash:
    use_key = remote_key
    use_name = remote_name
else:
    use_key = local_key
    use_name = local_name
print( 'using', use_name )

example #1

use_key, use_name = (remote_key, remote_name) if remote_hash > local_hash else (local_key, local_name)
print( 'using', use_name )
