RE: Syntax meaning - Gribouillis - Sep-22-2018
In general,
func(*param)means that
param is a sequence of python objects (eg a list, tuple, ...) and these objects are used as parameters in the call to function func. For exampleparam = [1, 2, 3] func(*param)has the same effect as calling
func(1, 2, 3)Calling
func(*param) is different from calling func(param), because the latter calls func with a single list argument, namelyfunc([1, 2, 3])
