def run_my_func(runner, *args, **kwargs):
runner(*args)
def my_func(name):
return name
out = run_my_func(my_func, "my name is john", kwargs=None)
print(out)
Why does this print out None?
If I print out the name like so:
def run_my_func(runner, *args, **kwargs):
runner(*args)
def my_func(name):
print(name)
return name
out = run_my_func(my_func, "my name is john", kwargs=None)
print(out)
I get the output
my name is john
None
>Solution :
Your function doesn’t return the value from the function it calls:
def run_my_func(runner, *args, **kwargs):
return runner(*args)
def my_func(name):
return name
out = run_my_func(my_func, "my name is john", kwargs=None)
print(out)
Output as requested.
Also, you can safely use both args and kwargs in calling runner, even if it takes no arguments:
def run_my_func(runner, *args, **kwargs):
return runner(*args, **kwargs)
def my_func(name):
return name
out = run_my_func(my_func, "my name is john")
print(out)
