Of course you can. Use a multimethod of some sort. The canonical answer to the OQ, of course, includes things like "Consider whether you really want/need to do this" and "duck typing". Frequently, in Python, code which checks for types, rather than checking for features, ends up being excessively restrictive and insufficiently general. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
