In python,
we can define functions that take arbitrary number of arguments. It is similar
to varargs in java. ‘*’ is used to represent arbitrary number of arguments.
test.py
def sum(*args): i=0 sum=0 while (i < len(args)): sum+=args[i] i+=1 return sum result1 = sum(10) result2 = sum(10, 20) result3 = sum(10, 20, 30) result4 = sum(10, 20, 30, 40) print(result1) print(result2) print(result3) print(result4)
$ python3
test.py
10
30
60
100
Arbitrary
arguments are stored in a tuple; arbitrary arguments will be last in the list
of formal parameters.
Note:
Any
arguments that occur after arbitrary arguments must be ‘keyword-only’
arguments.
