List:
I'm working on some methods that operate on (mathematical) vectors as in:
def Convolution(x, y) """Returns a list containing the convolution of vectors x and y"""
Is there any way to determine at runtime that x and y are iterible collections?
Do I *coughs* simply *coughs* trap the exception created by:
for v in x:
when v is a scaler quantity?
Sure, or if you want to do it earlier, you could try something like:
def convolution(x, y):
xiter = iter(x)
yiter = iter(y)And then use xiter and yiter in your for loops. This will make sure that the TypeErrors get raised as soon as the function is called.
