i want to use type= as a function/method keyword argument

[Skaperen]

i want to use type= as a function/method keyword argument:

result = that_function(buffer1,buffer2,limit=4096,type=bytes)

can i successfully use type= as a keyword argument when it is defined like:

def that_function(buf1,buf2,**kwargs):
    ty = kwargs.pop("type",None)
    ...
    do_stuff(ty,buf1)
    do_stuff(ty,buf2)
    ...
    return buf1+buf2

?
