It's me wrote:
The argument I wish to pass is either one string, or a list of strings, or a
tuple of strings.
For instance, I have:
def abc(arg1, arg2, arg3)
Let say that I expect arg1 and arg3 to be a number, and arg2 can be either
one string, or a bunch of strings and I need to do something on each of the
strings passed down.
def seq(x):
if hasattr(x,"__iter__"):
return x
else:
return (x,)
def abc (arg1, arg2, arg3):
for item in seq(arg2):
print item
abc(1,"test1",2)
abc(1,["test1","test2"],2)
abc(1,2,3)
abc(1,[2,3,4],5)
abc(1,(2,3,4),5)
