Defining the argument of a python function to be n of the same lists

I have a python function itertools.product() and a list A = [1, 2, 3]. I would like to find a way to do itertools.product(A, A, A, ...) where the number of As in the argument can be determined by a variable n.

I tried itertools.product([A]*n), which obviously did not work. I expected this to not work, but I will reiterate that I would like to code something so that itertools.product([A]*n) => itertools.product(A, A, A, ...) where there are n As.

>Solution :

You can use argument unpacking using *: product(*[A]*n) to stick to your idea, but better use repeat option in that case if all A‘s in your list are to be the same: product(A, repeat=n).
