Python Variable-length Variable List

A Python variable is created by assigning a value to a variable name. Besides standard python variable, there are two special variable syntaxes used in python to assign a variable-length variable list to a variable name. They are *args and **kwargs

Python *arg and **kwarg

Python *arg and **kwarg syntaxes are designed for representing a simple sequence and a keyword sequence.

*args

For *args, * is the syntax symbol to indicate a variable-length variable list. args is the variable name of the variable list. *args is used to represent a variable-length of non-keyworded argument list. *args can also be used to pass a variable number of arguments to a function.

**kwargs

For **kwargs: ** is the syntax symbol to indicate a variable-length keyword variable list. kwargs is the variable name of the keyword variable list. **kwargs is used to represent a variable-length of keyworded argument list. **kwargs can also be used to pass a variable number of keyworded arguments to a function.

Python Packing and Unpacking

The interpretation mechanism of Python *arg and **kwarg syntaxes involves the packing and unpacking the variable-length variable list of a varable

Python Argument Packing and Unpacking

Python *args is used to pack a variable-length of non-keyworded argument list into the variable args. Python *args can also be used to unpack the variable-length of non-keyworded argument list of variable args into a variable-length of non-keyworded argument sequence.

*args Packing

Python *args packing is used to create a new variable-length of non-keyworded argument list by packing a copy of assigned non-keyworded arguments into the variable args accordingly. image

*args Unpacking

Python *args unpacking is used to create a new variable-length of non-keyworded argument sequence by unpacking a copy of the non-keyworded arguments of variable name args accordingly. image

Python Keyword Argument Packing and Unpacking

Python **kwargs is used to pack a variable-length of keyworded argument list into the variable kwargs. Python **kwargs can also be used to unpack the variable-length of keyworded argument list of variable kwargs into a variable-length of keyworded argument sequence.

**kwargs Packing

Python *kwargs packing is used to create a new variable-length of keyworded argument list by packing a copy of assigned keyworded arguments into the variable kwargs accordingly. image

**kwargs Unpacking

Python **kwargs unpacking is used to create a new variable-length of keyworded argument sequence by unpacking a copy of the keyworded arguments of variable name kwargs accordingly. image
