Hi Zoh,

This mailing list is for the development *of* Python, not for questions 
about developing *with* Python. You should ask your question on a 
mailing list / newsgroup like python-list or python-tutor. python-list 
is available via google groups:


https://groups.google.com/group/comp.lang.python/topics

You haven't given enough information to answer the question however. The 
first argument 'self' means that the function is probably a method of a 
class, and should be called from a class instance. The *args / **kwargs 
means that the function can take any number of arguments or keyword 
arguments, which doesn't tell us anything about the function should be 
used.


You can find out more on Python functions in the tutorial:

http://docs.python.org/tutorial/controlflow.html#more-on-defining-functions

All the best,

Michael Foord


Cheers,

Zoh

Hello.

   We'are sorry but we cannot help you. This mailing list is to work on
developing Python (fixing bugs and adding new features to Python itself); if
you're having problems using Python, please find another forum. Probably
python-list (comp.lang.python) news group/mailing list is the best place.
See http://www.python.org/community/lists/ for other lists/news groups/fora.
Thank you for understanding.

   Programmers don't die, they just GOSUB without RETURN.

Of course I concur with the two posters above me, but in order to
advertise for my own shop... If you're stuck with a lot of newbie
questions like these you might want to try #python (the IRC channel on
irc.freenode.net). You're more likely to get quick successive
responses there than on other media (which are more suitable for
bigger, more complex questions).


cheers
Laurens
