I need to look up and see what:
if not isinstance(arg2, basestring):
does.
Okay, I got the idea there.
Now, what if arg2 is not a string but either a number or a bunch of numbers? Using your method, can I say something to the effect of "if arg2 is *not* an instance of a simple number"?
The isinstance function takes either a single type, or a tuple of types, so you can do something like:
if not isinstance(arg2, (int, long, float)):
or if you want to include strings as well:
if not isinstance(arg2, (basestring, int, long, float)):
