Hey, could you give an example?
I'll try...
Here is range with three explicit arguments >>> range(1, 10, 2) [1, 3, 5, 7, 9]
Here is range with the arguments supplied in a list; it does the same thing >>> args = [1, 10, 2] >>> range(*args) [1, 3, 5, 7, 9]
Here is an example with zip(). zip() normally takes multiple arguments, this makes it use elements of a single list:
>>> l=[ [1,2], [3,4], [5,6] ]
>>> zip(*l)
[(1, 3, 5), (2, 4, 6)]

Thanks, Jacob
apply() is deprecated; it has been replaced by 'extended call syntax'.
Instead of
apply(fn, args, kwds) you can now write fn(*args, **kwds)
