Bob, Kent
thanks for the suggestions. Bob made the comment "If there is no
compelling requirement that myfunc's argument be in the form **kwargs
...", but I'm afraid I don't understand the difference between
myfunc (**kwargs)
and
myfunc (kwargs)
Would someone mind explaining this? I never managed to find a
satisfactory explanation for what "**" means!
Did you RTFM under 7.6 Function definitions? If so how did it fail to help?
"If the form ``|*identifier|'' is present, it is initialized to a tuple
receiving any excess positional parameters, defaulting to the empty tuple.
If the form ``|**identifier|'' is present, it is initialized to a new
dictionary receiving any excess keyword arguments."
