Hi there, how can I check if a variable is a structure (i.e. a list)? For my special problem the variable is either a character string OR a list of character strings line ['word1', 'word2',...]
So how can I test if a variable 'a' is either a single character string or a list? I tried: if a is list: but that does not work. I also looked in the tutorial and used google to find an answer, but I did not. Has anyone an idea about that? Alex -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
