Category: Documentation Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 6 Submitted By: Brett Cannon (bcannon) >Assigned to: Raymond Hettinger (rhettinger) Summary: Tutorial doesn't cover * and ** function calls Initial Comment: While the tutorial, in the section discussing function definitions, covers * and ** arguments, there is no aparent coverage of using them in a function call (e.g., ``open(*["file", "r"])``). ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Peter van Kampen (pterk) Date: 2005-10-17 06:07 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=174455 I believe f(*seq) is covered in section 4.7.4 of the tutorial?
