Question

I have a list consisting of tuples, I want to pass each tuple’s elements to a function as arguments:

mylist = [(a, b), (c, d), (e, f)]

myfunc(a, b)
myfunc(c, d)
myfunc(e, f)

How do I do it?

Answer 1

This is actually very simple to do in Python, simply loop over the list and use the splat operator (*) to unpack the tuple as arguments for the function:

mylist = [(a, b), (c, d), (e, f)]
for args in mylist:
    myfunc(*args)

E.g:

>>> numbers = [(1, 2), (3, 4), (5, 6)]
>>> for args in numbers:
...     print(*args)
... 
1 2
3 4
5 6
