Description

I am doing a simple query like so:

res = @from row in beatdata begin
    @let ms = deduce_bpm(row)
    @let σ, d, D_S = music_distances(row.beats, row.pianobeats, ms)
    @select {σ=σ, d=d, D_S=D_S, row.band, row.piece, row.task}
    @collect DataFrame
end

but I get

ERROR: LoadError: QueryException: identifier expected at (σ, d, D_S)Stacktrace:
 [1] find_names_to_put_in_scope(::Expr) at C:\Users\m300808\.julia\packages\Query\AwBtd\src\query_translation.jl:420

Seems to me that this should be allowed.

Research direction

Reproduce the query in the issue, then inspect query_translation.jl around line 420, where the stack trace reports the identifier error. Trace how the second @let expression is parsed and translated, and confirm that the example works with multiple assigned variables without breaking existing @let behavior.
