Fellow Pythonistas, Please check out
http://spyced.blogspot.com/2005/04/how-well-do-you-know-python-part-3.html if you haven't done so yet. It appears that you can specify a function explicitly to take n-tuples as arguments. It actually works, checked this myself. If you read the reference manual at http://docs.python.org/ref/function.html really carefully, you will find that it is indeed part of the language spec, but it's a likely candidate for the least advertised Python feature. Small wonder since it looks like one of those language features that make committing atrocities an order of magnitude easier. Has anyone actually used it in real code?
